    Cheers, 5X. Looking on the bright side, at least I didn't spend my weekend getting voluntarily beaten up

        Having struggled (despite my cold ) down to London and finally made it to ClientCorp, the first thing I'm told is that a recruitment freeze has bitten off my extension and I shall be out of work as of Christmas.

        Might as well pack up now and go home then.

          Yep - get looking now, and see what happens. Mate of mine had given up looking before Christmas, and then an agent rang him out of the blue last week offering a new 6 month gig with 4 year rollout!

          Means that I can also pick up the bits of work in January that he was meant to be lined up for...

            Four more weeks of invoicing, and as nobody's around to get me up to speed on what I'll be working on for that time, I have been told to "just amuse yourself for a bit"

              I read that Google article about web-based malware that you recommended, Nick.

              Made interesting reading while I was waiting for take off this morning. I think there's a definite Plan B in there for me.

                Oh, it's a tough life sometimes...

                So if you're in London, does that mean that you'll be coming to next Friday's CUK meet?

                  I'll budge up and make room on the bench. It's quite warm where I've been sitting.

                  Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

                      Still not sure, although given that I'll probably have plenty of time at home shortly, I may stay the extra night in town.

                      I'd better start researching somewhere nicer to go than All Bar One Soho...
