    Thick? :eek: Ali.....you must be in the top most intelligent 1% of people in the UK. Your modesty is touching. :)

    I ideally need a job shortly or things may get a bit stressful :(. I wish I could carry on with what I do on my own but that is not possible so I need to reinvent myself.

    We have talked about the 'plusses' of corporate life but you have broken away and managed it alone. Fantastic and job brilliantly well done. If I were in your shoes I would be celebrating....everybody needs to have what you have :A

    On we go......and fingers crossed

    Dear Brogden I know there's,a clique on here that think I'm a bad guy but I'm not. Beware of pinning it all on the pension. You know I got stuffed. Calculator out time.The latest is that Osborn is going for public sector pensions. It'll not stop there I fear. Onwards and upwards, it'll all come good x
    I have borrowed from my future self
    The banks are not our friends

    I don't know anything about a 'clique.'

    I didn't understand what you were talking about before and unfortunately I still don't :(

    Sorry.................I don't wish to be rude but I don't get what you are saying.

    I'm saying that the promise of a pension isn't a guarantee. In my case it's been adjusted downwards 3 times now. If I was starting again I would be putting money into something I was in charge of x

    There is a slight irony in what I say Bob :). I have recently noticed in a number of different situations that some unfortunate people have been punished for doing what they were required or encouraged to do previously..........and then the rules changed :( !!

    As an englishman I am hoping I will be allowed to stay......I had better ask for a signed and sealed document of guarantee :p !!

    Bad taste buzzer? I think yesterday was 'national naughty day' :rotfl:!!
