Tel Aviv is booming (not in Scud-ing terms).

Market seems pretty buoyant in London, although not as much as a it was a few weeks back.

i had 2 agents today asking me to fix a particular project with problems. I couldn't even think of anyone who is currently available so I don't this problem is everywhere as some markets still have far more demand than supply.

I'm probably the exception that proves the point though

Nice to see you back.

If the market is really dead, then take what you can get - no matter how crappy. Otherwise you might end up claiming JSA, or, worse, going permie.

I think you've got those the wrong way around.

Back and Benched - damned and boomed

Was a 30 day Ban FYI. Nonetheless cheers for making my point guys

Properly benched for the first time in 5 years now....

I know why too - Market is dead as anything and only have 1 interview lined up with another one pending. Both far from home too albeit on very good rates. Potential gig within my network at my doorstep but with a low rate. Just awaiting approval.

Perfect time weather wise to be on the bench.

How is everybody else finding it?
