    Rumours about a hot Turkish lass taking over in a week

    If she is as hot in the head as in her body(rumoured), then FLC will be back as the president of the club
    Gets more interesting this morning. ClientCo managers are all fighting with each other to try and reduce the scope

    No signs of the new PM yet.

    As for me, I have just ordered a new set of cigars

    No, we didn't share one, wouldn't make sense for the VAT threshold, plus, she likes to run her own finances.
    Obviously, being in London, for a long time, I can no longer claim any T&S.
    She's lucky working outside London, so, may, if the rules don't change, get longer out of it, if she moves into town.

    Obviously, our plans could be dashed if Georgie gets his merry way .

    +1, the missus and I were saying just that the other day.
    She is currently on a bit of a "pants" one, but at least it is paying well.

    Gotta keep the 2 person contractor family going, for as long as possible

    The worst, is when the new gig makes the last lot good
