    What meffid says - if you're any good, you'll always get a job.

    I've been made redundant without warning (during the last internet bubble bust event), quit a couple of times without any real fall back, and I've somehow always pulled through (*fingers crossed* - I'M NOT TEMPTING YOU, FATE - DON'T TAKE MY STATEMENT AS A CHALLENGE!).

    I guess it'd help if you've got some kind of freelancing option so that you can tidy yourself over - but, in short - if you've harboured thoughts of moving for any amount of time, it means you should move, regardless of economic climate.

    (Personally, I think, for the most part (and assuming you're not a blue-collar worker or a tightly-bound mortgage-holder with a stupid rate) that all this 'credit crunch' bullshit is shrill yelping by the media - I don't know of anyone who's felt any real difference. Even if it is - people will always need work doing, so there will always be freelance options if you're willing to put the effort in).

    At least, I hope this is all true - I'm about to make a bit of a gamble myself over the next couple of months, and if the credit crunch really is that bad, then I could be risking all of my meagre worth.

    Oh, and London's the place to be if you want work - always has been 'always' will be (for the forseeable, anyway :)
