    Extension paperwork hasnt turned up - and I've given the agent until close of play today to sort it out.
    I like to get extensions reviewed by qdos and the turn around is 5 days.
    So even if it comes in I wont be on site early part next week.

      I think you could pay for a 24 hour turn around with them if needed?

        I have had enough of this client and I've given them enough chances to sort it out.

        Also as there is no paper work, I can't book my hotels - so if it comes end of the week there is a good chance the hotels will be full.

          I'll budge up on the TPD bench then.

                15 months living away has taken its toll.

                  Pimp came back about the A'dam/Arnhem gig.

                  "did I know of anyone who else who might be interested"

                  Ah,
                  No.

                  Don't advertise a gig as Hamsterjam based and then be surprised if people don't want to go for it when it's not based full time there.

                  If I wanted a 4 hour daily commute, I'd move back to blighty.

                      Nope.

                      If this was a 3-6 monther I might go with it, but this is for 12- 18 months.

                      Also this pimp has the dodgy clause I was talking about with no notice period and they will sue you if you leave the contract early.
