Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
Im from Sheffield in South Yorkshire, currently unemployed (just come back from living abroad for 5 months which was nice).
Its so hard to get a job in this industry, there must be 100 applicants for every 1 job. Plus most jobs seem to favor PHP coder over a good quality designer. Design quality up north is not so great.
Ive actually decided just to start my own agency and work on my own, there may only be 1 new vacancy every 2 weeks to work for an established agency but theres thousands of companies and organizations out there who could benefit from my design and marketing experience.
