    And I live in place where there are pitifully few permanent jobs.
    Can't be worse than Middlesbrough, I've had over 30 contracts in 10 years, only 1 was based locally

    >16 but not actually bored with being a contractor.

    Some have been long >2 years, some short <2 months, but I've enjoyed the variety and the change in my role over the last 17 and closing on 18 years.
