    A few Questions.

    If they think it's bad now, wait till they see the cost of someone with half your experience from a big consulting co.

    24th Feb deadline for handing in your notice

    Good point. When I was inside previously and via a brolly (some years ago), I was travelling down and staying during the week. So the expenses point is moot.

    24th Feb deadline for handing in your notice

    I have no idea where I got 2 miles from then. Reading the 101 thread it looks like 200 may be more appropriate. And I just turned down one of those. Double drat.

    Staying in the same public sector contract after April 2017

    In this particular case, the consulting co was (probably) UK based, it's only the resources that were landed-offshore, probably subbed from a vanilla tier2 so if you follow the money then yes, but daily fail will get sidetracked with someone's dress and makeup before they get that deep into...
