I'm not sure i would be happy with that being self employed, i'd push for over £100 atleast. I'm on just under that without any of the hassle of being self employed and thats not including overtime, on call ect... But like said it's money in the bank and you can do other work, thats another thought though are you going to have enough time to do other work to make up the pennies???

I've once invoiced just over £800 for a days work.
Wasn't a good feeling when I handed it all over to my employer!
Damn salaries

Being in the building at a time like this you'd be daft not to. 6 months of work is 6 months you're not on the dole, even if it is at a much lower rate than you're used to. I wish there was 6 months more work for me!

I'd much rather have a job I enjoyed than loads of cash.

At the moment I have neither...
