Congratulations and welcome. Do try to keep away from general until you feel like being insulted. Or asked if you like films about gladiators.

Evening folks, another newbie here

Hi all, after effectively contracting for the last 10 years but as a permie for an MSP i've realised the error of my ways and have quit my job and gone freelance. I was getting rather sick of being charged out for over a grand a day but only seeing a fraction of that in the salary, plus there's something rather satisfying about being your own boss.
No questions just yet, read the CUK boards thoroughly (potentially obsessively), read the PCG guide, signed up for PCG+, got an accountant & Ltd co and have secured a client direct (albeit for a couple of days per month). Thought I'd drop in and say hello anyway
