Today, I reminded myself that this 3 month gig is paying for my house extention and got on with some work as I took the 06:30 out of Bournemouth... I'm far too tired now though.

Had the usual non-job job calls this morning and been trying to write another two versions of my cv highlighting different skills areas etc to start distributing (but failing miserably with writers block).

d000hg Ltd can offer you a CV writing/review service for only £400.

Of course, I can't guarantee I will be the one to do it personally, I have a company to run. But one of my Romanian, Indian or Russian freelancers will be plenty good enough to do the reading on your resume and respond to you re the same.

Now I feel dirty and I've now just completed the work what I'd scheduled to last for 2 more weeks ..

I blame Thatcher
