      That is the true Spirit of Contractor Christmas.

            Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                Zero days billed, only fools and horses work.

                Decided on a reverse retirement strategy, to 'retire' now while still young enough to enjoy it (know too many people that worked hard until retirement then too knackered or ill to do much and some didn't even make it to retirement), then if necessary will go back to IT contracting WFH when I'm an old codger and need the money to top up whatever the pension is worth by then.

                In the meantime playing around with the latest Microsoft dev stuff to keep my skills fresh while toying with a plan B idea as a hobby. If it ever earns its keep that'll be a bonus and means I can stay 'retired' from the rat-race.
                Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

                  Assuming I don't do any extra time above what I've planned in the remaining days of this month, I will have charged 227.5 days this calendar year.

                    180 days for me. Since 9 March.
                    I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).
