Well I finished my last day in Doncatraz to a contractors typical applause (the sound of my own feet hitting the floor as I leave). But now onwards and upwards as I start my next contract role a little further north in Darlington, on a 6 month stint. So far I have been quite fortunate working on fixed term contracts, but this one required a fully fledged contractor with company, so now I have my very own umbrella company who sort out all te invoices and gumf, while I get on with the work bits.

Shoes buffed, shirts pressed and suit cleaned, all set to go. Back to even earlier starts in the morning and later finishes, but hopefully I won’t be sat twiddling my thumbs on this one and it should pay for the next jolly, where to, you’ll see soon enough.
