Question What is making you happy today?

[MK Shrimper]

Happy - I got one month of Netflix for free.
Unhappy - I forgot how **** it is.

New laptop ready to collect around lunchtime. Goodbye, awkward typing, sayonara, stupid typos, auf weidesein, only being able to do one thing at a time on the tablet. Hello, writing properly on a good platform, bonjour, multitasking, konichiwa, actually being able to pay Youtubers through ads on ideos. Now I feel like much less of a dick.

You've set yourself a pretty high bar in terms of correctness and improvement Sonic. Your public will be watching.

Agreed a new contract that will keep me gainfully employed until the end of August. Or more accurately, will get me 6 months closer to retirement.

It also means I don't waste any of our savings whilst looking for a new contract, which means said savings can be used for what we want: a huge re-organisation of the downstairs of our house.

My contract is up in 6 weeks time.

A few permies have been laid off so I am not confident of a renewal.

I wouldn't mind changing industry anyway so I am starting to look around.

The dream would be to work in Southend or Chelmsford but there isn't much software development done there.....

Good luck. We have a software engineer that is based in MK. He only comes into the office once every couple of weeks. Any reason you can't do something similar?

I wouldn't want to move to MK!

You wouldn't have to. We had a software contractor came in once a week, based near Stevenage.

Just had one of those companies phone me to say I had a non fault accident in the last 2 years. I played along for a bit but when I described my accident, me crashing the Millenium Falcon into the Death Star, they cut off sharpish
