    Now.

    I think I'll go & count resistors for a while.

    Why not go and count some of the numbers on the counting thread?

    Or better still, start looking round for contracts?

So, go in with the optimitistic view that they are saving the best to last. Just remember the X-Factor / Britain's Got Talent theory. Nobody remembers the first act, but remembers the last one. People have short memories. You can do it. :-)

      Thanks!

      Am trying to keep an open mind that if there's not a gig in the immediate pipeline then they may need someone like me on retainer.

        No point in looking for contracts before mid June.

              For once, I will not be eating chicken salad at my desk for lunch. I will be meeting members of my last project for lunch at The Telegraph restaurant in 11 Telegraph Street, Moorgate | toptable.com

                I'm visiting a bank branch to sort out a bank account. Given that I have an account with them why on earth do I need to provide details to prove I am me.

                  Well, there we are then.

                  Assistant Dean needing a count of 13A sockets in the lab.

                  120.

                  I don't think he believed me.

                    Sounds too round a number like you guessed. You should have said 118.
