Two girls from my sword fighting group once offered at the same time. Turned them down as I was (and still am) married.

3 for this gig. One in dublin but start date not agreed, current gig, took ages due to internal cost boards and one 20 miles away.Originally posted by stek View PostCurrent one 'I will take' contract at QDOS for appraisal, one more offer at old place, no contract received yet, another 'pls come back' from last clientco and another now I know I will get and very local.
Three, maybe four? But only one with an actual contract - shows tho - the work is out there even at this time of year and even if I just end up with no choice despite blustering as usual!
