    It could have been worse, she could have chosen a career in banking.

    That would be just too embarrassing. What would she have told her grandchildren that she did when she worked.

    PS has anyone noticed that since lostinrates and inspector monkfish have disappeared there has been a lot less petty bickering and sock-puppets...;)


    LIR is calm and on the level STS. Utterly transparent, no hidden agendas de de da. Genuine person IMO.
    Insp MF..likes facts and stuff with a bit of banter on the side.

    I don't believe their absence has had any effect on any bickering/no bickering whatsever.

    Methinks it's more to do with a significant reduction of posters per se. Perhaps they are all on hols?

    Wasn't there a poster on here a while ago who thanked people a lot, but someone made a threat against him/her or their kids? Perhaps Rewired is this person because all s/he does is thank people. Since this site became 'invitation only', a lot of lurkers will have had to register to continue to read it.
