Nice result.

Sat of the bench myself at the moment. First time in 10 years so quite nice to have some time to myself.

Bleeding great isn't it really. I had an embarrassing amount of time off this year, you've just got to budget for it

Well done PG.

Get saving, buy that house.

It's private school fees now. Jeez Louise!

My contract comes up for renewal at the end of October, and I've been keeping an eye out for suitable contracts nearer home (Devon), e.g. Bristol or even Reading. But nothing much so far.

Shauny needs a new personal care assistant.

Looks like a new 6 month gig for me when this current one wraps up at the end of September.

Nah. It's always about the money. It's just not always about the daily rate. Fuel costs (as you identified), unpaid dead time commuting, wear and tear on body and car, interesting projects that add to your value...

This is what I was getting at. Less miles on body, mind, and soul. A bit more time due to less commuting. Interesting work, excellent client. Long term prospects...

It's not just about money - right?
