    No more subsistence.

    Had my contract extended on Friday, which means I'll go over the 24 months. So as of today I have to walk to work and eat roadkill.

      On the plus side, think of it as an opportunity to get more exercise and eat less, potentially saving the NHS thousands because they won't have to treat your for obesity and/or diabetes. Do it for the good of the country, man!

            80%-85% of something is better than 100% of nothing. We've all done it.

              I agree. I'm delighted it's been extended. I've never had to work away from home... yet. So, I'm very lucky in that regard.

                Thought it was just travel expenses that were knocked on the head after 2 years? Subsistence too?
