    Quite right - no excuse.

    Who was being sarcastic?

    Slough / Boringstoke - I'm destined to work in these places as I don't like travelling too far from home.

    I'm going to look at it positively and do a bit of long-overdue training to bring my skills up to date.

    Anyone looking for an infrastucture consultant (VMWare / Wintel etc), can cook / won't cook - let me know.

    Here's hoping for a quick thaw.

    Cheers.
    Look on the bright side - next contract might not be in such a hole.

    Play your cards right and you could end up in such exotic locations as Slough instead...

    You need to change your signature and avatar - it's unlucky now.

    (And happy new year!)

    Sorry to hear that.

    I'm waiting to hear whether last client is willing to stump up for another few weeks work - they know that they need me, but don't know whether they can afford me.

    Some sectors are still buzzing with opportunities, it seems, though.
