LinkedIn: Blaze of glory
Nah....agency were ok with my 'de-clienting'; agency rep even agreed with what I posted, just objected to a single, 3 word phrase I used. As of tomorrow I'll probably delete my entire LinkedIn profile, not sure yet. -
LinkedIn: Blaze of glory
Apart from the occasional 'IR35' post, my LinkedIn posts are carefully 'neutral' and based around 'GizzaJob' type posts. Lost my tulip today re: anti-Semitism and policing response and posted a bit of a rant. Until tomorrow....I 'work' (NCOTBAC anymore) in the middle of 'policing'. 30... -
Maybe closing company due to illness. Has anyone 'sold' their Ltd Co.?
Thanks for all the thoughtful replies, I get the view that this probably isn't a great idea and I'm not going to waste time or energy where not needed. courtg9000 - you don't know how close you are; been offered up of 7k to put in a DV application before - just 'hypothetically' of course during...- David71

Come to the office... any office!
Shortest contract I ever had was Thales. was concurrent with another client who'd had a bit of slow down so I had no issue with running both at the same time - this was clearly stated / not hidden. Well outside IR35 re: location, office visits, working practises etc. Turned up on day 1 to say...- David71

Maybe closing company due to illness. Has anyone 'sold' their Ltd Co.?
So, as mentioned in some previous posts, I'm a bit poorly and not making 'long term' plans at the mo. Current idea is to make my company dormant / non-trading / VAT de-registered, have six months off (money will be tight-ish but I've got a small war-chest and reasonable income replacement...- David71

Gaza blockaded
It's really simple: Palestine is a geographic area. Palestinian Jews Palestinian Muslims Palestinian Christians Palestinian Bedouins Palestinian Bhai They all lived there until 1948 and the name changed. Then Palestinian Arab somehow became the only term associated with the place. -
Potential for a digital pound this decade
That is so 90's. You'd be surprised to takes contactless nowadays.or maybe not :wink -
Gaza blockaded
I think that is a very fair suggestion. :hug: While this isn't 'my' thread, might I 2nd Zigenare's suggestion and ask that this thread is closed by the mods. -
Gaza blockaded
Like any other county or military, f'ups happen in intelligence and every where else. In time, I am 100% sure Israel will hold enquires and investigations and accountability will be demanded and careers will end if not jail for those who missed or even ignored warnings. To insinuate there was... -
Gaza blockaded
I don't 'do' vigils or 'candle waving until tonight when my Jewish Israeli wife and I met up with a mixture of Jewish / Non-Jewish, Israeli, Welsh etc. friends in Cardiff tonight. The one thing that struck me is that my friends, who I've known for 20-odd years are almost 100% left-wing, Guardian... -
You know the saying: Every cloud....is grey and p's on you

How Slow Can You Go?
This is why my car got written off last Friday (before the national drop to 20mph but I was on a road which somehow got reduced a while ago). Not the only reason, but I 'hit' an unexpected 20mph zone and lost my sense of road position and hit a parked car! Recovery driver said he's been picking... -
You know the saying: Every cloud....is grey and p's on you
(1) Find out the treatment results next Wednesday; haven't had a drink since treatment started on 1st March - Wednesday it's going to be celebration or sorrow drowning down the pub either way! (3) One 'silver lining', I now qualify for the 'mobility scheme' so have ordered a new car through...
