Where are all the part-time instructor jobs?

I have been an instructor off and on for 25 years, firstly as a means to an end, in the days of the "self Improver" and latterly as an enjoyable hobby, along side my "day Job" as a 737 Captain, but I have simply been unable to get ANY instructing work at all for 2 Summers. I could find some if I was prepared to travel to my old stomping grounds of Leeds and Sherburn, but where I now live, not a million miles from Blackpool, nothing. Now I know times are hard, but I've lived through recessions before but nothing this bad for the GA fraternity. Is it that schools simply don't like airline pilots? an attitude that I have come across from time to time, or is it just something even my best friends won't tell me about?
