    there maybe trouble ahead..

    I was meant to have a meeting with the dept manager here this afternoon to agree final deliverable migration plans etc. before i finish next week..

    I asked him when he wanted the meeting, he looked very stressed, he's a very open honest guy and basically said that he'd been told by his account manager that there were budget issues for his dept. and he's got an urgent meeting and so cant make the meeting with me and that he may have some news tomorrow..

    so what do the panel think is the likely outcome?

    Just face the music and dance...

    And if you do end up back in Manchester - there is always the German market, if you feel a little nostalgic.

    Hope it goes in your favor

    I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

        well,

        if i dont stay for the extra week, the work is working and complete but 90% of it is on my machine, hence the migration plans need arranging for next week..

        but, the work itself is mainly bug fixes and minor changes for a bespoke system that i've spent the last 3 months working on..
