    And theyve also suggested I use my substitution clause. If I supply someone I know to cover the summer off giving them instructions on what to do they'd rather do that then get someone in temporarily they don't know.

      d) Turn up to be told that the programme has been a failure and they have pulled the plug. The blue chip consultancy has been given notice to quit and another 150+ contractors are to be terminated, but they still want to extend me for other projects. So they've asked me to sign the contract, keep the equipment and then take July/August off and come back in Sept when they've got new budgets.
