Thats a good point. I've been fascinated by the number of new outfits small, medium and largish that seem to keep springing up, the jobs page on here is frequently a complete mystery to me, who are all these organisations with jobs? And a few people who post on here have mentioned going solo (workwise!) over the last couple of years. Actually I've no problems with 1/few person consultancies, we get a surprisingly large amount of fieldwork subbed from them. I suspect small consultancies are shy of getting the big units involved in their pet projects. The utterly tedious watching-brief I'm out on this week comes under that category (watching accom building drainage - ahhhh! 5 minutes digging then 3 hours doing the next individual en-suite connection...only so long you can make the crossword last)
