          Suity works for free so I can have a holiday, send him in as a subbie and still get my full rate.

          Bargain.

            As an aside, I wonder how well a newspaper would do if it set aside a page or two for good news. Do people want to read good news?

                  No good news for me just had the dreaded meeting request titled 'Cost cutting' meeting is at 2pm today, a nice 10min meeting, god damn it, just up for renewal as well and turned down a 12 month gig last week as told I was safe here work and rate wise, by look of it if I end up with a 10% rate cut at best I will be down a £100 a day compared to if I had taken the other contract, b*llocks, b*m, poo

                    Yes, I just sold an eco-shed in the Douro valley with nice views of the river to a guy from London who paid two million pounds for it over the internet without even coming along to view the property first.

                    He might be disappointed when he finds out it's actually a run down wooden pigsty overlooking an open sewer, so don't tell him, will you?

                      BBC Nature - Rare flame brocade moth is established in the UK

                      One more applicable to moth lovers I suppose.
