    Consider........

    The answer to the Question - "Would you consider going permie....."

    is always a resounding YES!!

    I will always CONSIDER going permie if its offered......... I am fairly sure that upon consideration my answer will be NO - but I don't see the point in (possibly) excluding myself from an offer because of that.....

    Hmmm it does read like that, what I meant is I will work in a tuliphole with rats and no heating... providing it's close to home.

    E - I've been in line for a few gigs when I've been asked if I'd consider going permanent some time in the future. I always give the same answer; no.
