    Sits back awaiting the inevitable poll, followed by an entire thread arguing whether this includes VAT and expenses in true CUK fashion.

    This is then followed by the "what was your turnover" poll.

    AtW will sense that the congregation is in the mood for polls and will start one about what he should have for lunch tomorrow.

    At this point SA will complain about too many polls, shortly before one of the old timers complaining about the quality of posts on this board

    The old timer will go into voluntary exile for an afternoon whilst lurking to see if they're missed. This will be ended with an "I'm Back" thread.

    Well, would it now? Would it just? That sounds like information that an organised contractor would have (i.e. not the majority on this board), also you are trying to freeze out new contractors who haven't worked a year are you? Or should they give you cashflow projections...

    a/ some people lie
    b/ some do few very short contracts with high rates and spend the rest of the year on the bench
    Don't demean the poll. I sense an ulterior motive Mr. Bagpuss... <pulls best Peter Faulkner quizzical pose>

    Please please let it be .Net

    Or was it AtW using his virtual rate from SKA
