I've known feasts and famines before but the current dearth of work has me worried. Everyone seems to be saying "Sorry, nothing happening right now". And it's not only me; a friend of mine has a recruitment consultancy with loads of applicants but no places... And another friend with a retail business says the footfall has slowed to an ominous funeral march... scared2:
Still, it's not all bad; this site tells me that my property has only fallen in value by 10% ... so far ::)

Now, where's that website about moving to Cyprus...

So ~ Like many of us here you scrape by utilising what talent you possess, accepting that there are good months/years and bad but it's better than actually "working". happy088
In the meantime it's best not to enquire too deeply as being told to p*ss off and mind your own business offends.

"The driver who was involved in the accident with you was not driving fully in accordance with the terms of her provisional licence...

She was accompanied by a full licence holder... Phew! ;D
...who had not held a full licence for the necessary 3 years. Currently our underwriting department are considering if we can deal with her claim.

But, it does seem that if I sign something about "assignment and agreement" - which runs to 3 pages long - and there's something about "without prejudice".... Moi? prejudiced?
