    Nice one

    I quite enjoy picking up projects that other people have chucked off the rails, it's an interesting challenge.
    Ok so the rate's a bit dire, but at least you're close to home which is a very nice plus.

      Good news! Hope it goes well.

      I've been out 3 months too - it's getting a little depressing.

      But it seems as though people are getting new gigs every day now - does the bench seem a little emptier or are the gaps being filled but we're just not hearing about it?

              WELL DONE ZARA!

              And if you're starting with 'failed' projects, whats the worst that could happen?

                  Well done Zara !
                  Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                      Woohoo! Well done - don't forget about those of us left on the bench...


                      It does seem to have picked up over the last week - with more jobs on the job boards. I have an interview today but the commute will be a 70 mile drive each way (mostly dual carriageway so should be do able). 5 miles sounds like a dream!
