    Budge up

    I'm on the bench from 18th Dec - just had it officially confirmed. Looking forward to not living out of a suitcase for a bit - (give it a week and I'll be climbing the walls!!)

    Who else is out there?

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

        Blimey! You're committed!

        I think you'll find there'll not be many jobs posted on Jobserve a week after you're benched. There's some event on around then.

        Cobblers. Find your own bit. Newbies normally have to sit on the far end, where the loose nail sticks up and it gets damp in the rain.

          And you don't get any of the beer either.

                Naw started in June - 6 months.
                I've worked away from home for 9 months this year so a short amount of time on the bench is welcome - but not the 6 months I had last year!!

                  I scribbled something in my diary on Wednesday night to that effect - I think, but I was a little squiffy. I have clientco drinks that week too - I'll PM you

                    We'll sort summat out, I'm running out of spare lunchtimes and evenings trying to meet up with folks ( and network like b*ggery) in the smoke before I hang me suit up.
