    This question has been asked countless times on various forums, it really is a case of how long's a piece of string?

    There is a good deal of variance depending on what you offer & also where you are based

    Probably best for you to avoid agents if you can

    I don't agree with that completely.

    There are some decent agents around and if you have some of your own work, agents are good for filling the rest of your dates.

    Just make sure you are happy with what they are paying you.

    Agreed, but finding the good ones is the hard part.
