    My interview on Friday is at the agency office (the prospective client operates his business from his house in the country, apparently) so I'll get to meet the pimpette - I can't remember the last time I actually met an agent in person, but it must be about six years ago.

    The one in Bristol the other year was in an office about three streets away from the client, but I still never saw him in person

      It's helps put things in perspective, I can tell you.

      My whole philosophy on life has changed for the better (not that I've ever really chased the £££ all the time). There are lots of things that I want to do more than work, and I've had some good time to think about them.

      If I lose the current gig, then I'll start doing more work on plan B - it won't be a money-spinner (relatively!) but is something that will be incredibly satisfying!!

              I met the pimpette on the current gig, because she offered to take me to lunch, which was nice. Never met another agent, but there are two or three that I would like to meet just to see what they are like in the flesh.

                Some imbecile has re-opened a YUI bug I reported in April 2007 - I wondered why it had suddenly started showing up in my email

                    But I am not seeing him for days so I suppose I will have to stick with the Lemsip!
