So your not going to extend your contract, it seems like you fancy some time off. Anywhere nice planned?
Not straight away, finding somewhere to live first as we've just sold our house - looking to rent for a while now, want to get everything signed asap before the buyers get cold feet in the current climate...
Then all being well, I think we will have some chill time somewhere nice after we've moved
Eeyore was very glad to be able to stop thinking for a little, in order to say "How do you do" in a gloomy manner to Pooh.
"And how are you?" said Winnie-the-Pooh.
Eeyore shook his head from side to side. "Not very how," he said. "I don't seem to felt at all how for a long time."

Been working solidly (with the odd week off for Xmas, short hols etc) since July 2006, and I am DESPERATE for some decent time off to chill. This one finishes at the end of July. I have 30 month's money in the bank, so if there has to be a recession, it would be nice for it to be NOW.

Awww I hope you get your chill time.
I'm on good terms with all my ClientCo's they are all very cool about letting me do what I want, I've socially engineered them over time

Ah they'd let me have time off if I wanted, but I tend not to take too much time off voluntarily, and instead depend on having a few weeks off between contracts. The last 3 or 4 it hasn't worked out though - it's been 'finish Friday start Monday' type of changeover.
I only took this extra month because it would finance me if I had to stay off work this side of Xmas. Feels odd to be talking about Crimbo though But we are on the long downhill.
