    Extension - 6 months! BOOM BOOM BOOM

    Yay. Life continues in the sunny public sector.

    In all honestly, they've been looking for perm for last year without any joy and they are completely useless at recruitment, so I can see me staying a while.

    14 miles from home, decent rate (albeit inside IR35), very laid back atmosphere, easy work. You get the odd weird A@se manager but not as bad as the Defence industry!

    Will take me to 2.5 years beating my longest contract record (got two at 2 years and 5 months spookily enough).
