    Fine for me too, I am just at Jct 4 on the M8 if anyone needs a lift xxx

    Me too, as far as I remember from previous threads we stay in the same village. This is probably where I find out you're one of my neighbours.............:o

    IT. They've been paying people off here and there for years. But a huge chunk of what the company do is now going so it looks like I'll be going too as I support them. Trying to see the bright side, i.e. redundancy money to pay off debts.

    SIP? Done unpaid guest lecturing in some colleges/uni's so I'm pretty well known. Doing one next week actually. Will check it out. Its going to mean a huge drop in salary but never mind. Trying to find a comprehensive list of click through sites or similar to earn a little extra on top of the other things I do. Would like to clear off a little more of my debt before I do get made redundant so that I might have a little cash as a cushion if I do go into lecturing. Do you know where I might get a list?

    i think there is one on here somewhere...i'll see if i can find it for you ...sip is the social inclusion partnership ...it's european funded thing ...alot of local councils do it ...south lanarkshire deff does....i know they do basic comp skills classes for those that know very little knowledge...it might just be a couple of hours a week but it may lead onto other things and give you some money coming in in the meantime
