I think I've come to the conclusion that I might as well cancel my gym membership - it's £50/month down the drain at the moment. I might just put the money saved towards a rowing machine or something like that, then Lady VF can get the benefit as well.Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket? -
Same here really - we're having to invent projects. And for some reason they still want us to work an extra 3 hours a weekOriginally posted by NickFitz View PostClientCoLeadWebDev: "Let me have a think and I'll get back to you."

I usually use mine pretty solidly for about 6 months a year and hardly ever for the other 6 months. So I reckon I'm paying about twice as much as I should be. Mines about 60 a month which isn't bad for London.Originally posted by voodooflux View PostI think I've come to the conclusion that I might as well cancel my gym membership - it's £50/month down the drain at the moment.

One of the problems with my gym is that it isn't particularly close to home - it's on the way back from ClientCo, but a pain to get to at other times.Originally posted by Bunk View PostI usually use mine pretty solidly for about 6 months a year and hardly ever for the other 6 months.

Going to drop them a line now to cancel, then look around for a rower.Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?Comment

Was that the reponse from the "seasonal" agency, or INCAT? Sounds about par for the latter from what I've heard.Originally posted by zara_backdog View PostCan you invent the need for a BA? Apparently I have too much analysis experience for a 220 quid a day PM there
