Actually, I'm aiming to be at the Counting House for 5:30 which means leaving by 5:00 so they've got an hour and a half to remember they're supposed to be interviewing me.

Over an hour later now
I don't think they're going to call.
I've been using this time to apply for other gigs, in an attempt to bring Sod's Law into action.
I realise that by attempting to use Sod's Law I'm ensuring that it won't apply
I wish I was in the pub already

Oh good, EndClientCo's owner corporation has its own group-wide analytics tracking stuff, which nobody had remembered would need to be in there.
I am now going through the templates retro-fitting awful SiteCatalyst code, approximately four hours after the site went live

Finally got round to doing last month's expenses. Got to update my CV now - an agent who's landed me a couple of decent gigs in the past got in touch with a two-monther at a company just a couple of miles from home, starting immediately, which could be handy if (as I expect) CurrentClientCo don't need me any more now the site's live.
I was hoping for a bit of a break, but if the work's there a short distance away, it seems foolish not to take it
Having said that, they may look at my CV and dump it straight in the shredder
