    Eek. Any chance you can pop down to B&Q and get me a long weight, a left handed screwdriver and a new bubble for a spirit level?

    17. The longer everything goes according to plan, the bigger the impending disaster.

    You are probably ok, but if I was you I'd make much better research into this to get definitive answer.

    I suppose maybe you are allowed to visit their site for meetings but not for doing actual work

    I don't thinks it's been a very profitable trip. I've accrued over £4k in expenses which I'm probably not going to get the full amount back as the finance director is going to moan. All staff are on corporate cards as a contractor though the finance director refused to let me have one & so I had to expense afterwards. They can pay for my flights and hotel next month to avoid the outlay.
