    Glory be. The day has dawned at last.

    Sympathies for those on the bench, or those struggling, but I finally got my hearts desire

    I am out of this contract. We had a chat on wed and he asked me my opinion on how things were going and I told him straight - you need someone cheaper.

    after 3 years - he agreed

    oh joy. a few months rest for old EO . Playing games, drinking ale and polishing me tub

    "tub"

            I can sympathise. You get into a position where you feel you should do it, become pivotal to dept/business and personally struggle to justify your rate/salary

            Bu did you punch him on his 'ead on the way out?

                  Nice one EO. What's your plans for your free time then?
                  Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
