OK, I know that the terms are mutually exclusive, but who are the half decent agents based oop north? I'm on the bench at the moment and want to look for commutable work. Has anybody got any recommendations.

Agents - North West
Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1! -

I would just like to confirm to all you Southerners and foreigners that it is true, it IS "grim up north".
It constantly rains. So much so that should one decide to wear a wide brimmed hat one would be beaten into the ground.
Once beyond Watford you enter a different time zone and need to reset your time piece accordingly. 1842 should be about right with some regional variations.
Don't expect to be able to use the telephone unless you have a mobile as the natives are still making bangles out of the wires. Should you have a mobile be careful where you use it for fear of being swung from the walls of Lancaster castle as a Witch.
Please do not ride a motorbike in the North either. It upsets the locals, they think it is the Roundheads coming back.
Northerners are ill educated, probably due to the fact that they all left school (which they never attended) and reported for chimney cleaning duties aged 10. Many suffer from diseases which were wiped out in the modern world years ago.
They all wear cloth caps and race Whippets at the weekend.
All roads are cobbled and that includes the motorway.
I would suggest you remain in the Southern part of the UK and enjoy the ammenities in Londinium.

That explains why the South is so full of Northerners then. Did they all walk down, I wonder...?His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment

Have you never heard of the Jarrow Marchers? a fine tradition!
Is it true the streets of London are paved with gold? What a magnificent sight to behold.
What news from the front?I am not qualified to give the above advice!
