Well that's good ttfn, things are on the up for you! Just watching countryfile, the weather forecast for the week ahead is in a min - They said earlier that Weds is snow from the south, hmmm.
ttfn - I signed the Official Secrets Act in 1980 when I joined the department that was then called DHSS. I had just left school and was really excited about getting a good job that would tide me over until I got a better job.
I got pensioned off in 2004 due to my insanity and various other little problems. Who cares? I got my lump sum and pension.
Alex - I hope you had something stronger than tailcocks to keep you warm x
Susan - When I was in local government I used to call your employer the Department of Stealth and Total Obscurity - always got away with it as people would say 'pardon' and then I gave out the proper name! My soh is not a recent aquisition. Glad you got your pension out of them though - keep drawing it for many more decades to come x
