    So is working for a living:rolleyes:

    If you want the £££ then jump through the hoops required. You've more or less said that you are willing to go for 13 weeks with nowt. Seems you can afford it.

    Well I have not taken any holiday this year,as I understand it, as long as I am free to sign I can take a couple of weeks, so I'll let them sort out the course, then announce my holiday or something, miss a few days for family emergencies and sickness. Plus they are changing over to the new New deal, so that should all confuse them a bit

    Do not fear, where there is a will there is a way!

    There you go the poppet. You've answered your own question :)

    Now I realise it's the Easter holidays and you are probably allowed to stay up a wee bit later than normal but I think you should pop off to bed now pet.

    Nighty night :)

    "Its not for me" its pretty straight forward. I could not do that sort of work, it would drive me nuts, I need to be stimulated.

    And pray, tell me, why is your need to be stimulated greater than other people's need to be stimulated?

    Of course you can do any sort of work - if you were hungry enough you would! Where is your self-respect? You expect other people to do work that is "beneath" you?

    If ever I come across your beautifully-scripted CV, I know what I should like to use it for!

    This is the REAL world - sadly 99% of us do what we have to do - not what we would want to do.
