I've been contracting since mid-July back at the place which made us
redundant and will be there until the end of January when the system is
scheduled to go live. It's for 4-days-a-week so longer weekends which
is rather nice.

L has just got a contract as well which should last 6-9 months.
Unfortunately that means she's living away from home during the week
which isn't ideal but at least it means money is now going into the
'Buy a 1200GS then wander the US for 2-3 months' pot.

And having to fly luton-Gva early in the morning. Don't you just love
budget airlines?

Not sure if that makes it any better.
