& good ridance ! /pan /pan

Friday is the last day of my contract & It looks likely I may be 'back on the tools' for another company in Sheffield.
I've been travelling the snake every day for 2 1/2 years. :speechles & It wont be a day too soon before I see the back of it. /Grrr
The work for Octopus elec has dried up in scumchester, They have tenders in various places; Leeds, Barnsley, Sheffield etc, So I'm hoping that I'll be back & running one of them soon.
I've applied for agency work, ie; clerk of works jobs over there, but in a way, I hope I dont get one of them !! :thinking:

FYI; manchester is a nice place with nice people..... just not in the area's I have to work !! :iloveyou:

Good luck with the next job Derek!

Thanx for your help Paul, appreciated. :iloveyou: but I think working on offshore installations is a bit out of my depth.
I've got a meeting on monday morning with the co I thought I might end up with on the tools ? It appears not !!
They are shortly starting on a 45,000 sq ft... £2,000,000 office re-furb, & It seems I'm earmarked to run the electrical side of it !! :inquisiti
I've got to cross my eyes & dot the T's yet, but here's hoping. :afro: :afro:

Sounds good D, all the best.

You got the cross-eyed bit right, but surely it should be 'make the teas' for a man with your skill set?
