    Would be far easier..... "Yes I'd like to put you forward for a role, I'm putting over 2 CVs, and the current bid is at £47 to be one of them. Make me an offer?"

    At least you could decide.

          Of course!

          There used to be a time when agents were polite, returned your e-mails and calls (well some of mine did) and then the recession kicked in and they don't have to bother with that any more because its you and 3000 other candidates vying for a job that pays peanuts.

            I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
