    A list of your uses please. How are you usable?
    DA has been known to review CVs for regulars, and to offer advice on industry trends.

    For no money. (I'm not sure if I still owe him a large whisky, however...)

      In true agent style, when he said he'd review mine, I never heard from him again...

          Maybe you needed to actually send him your CV?

                I did. I asked him to review it, he said OK. I sent it over, and never heard a word.

                Not that I'm bitter about being let down by an agent
