    Here's to us. Who's like us? Damn few, and they're all dead.

    Post 2362 was pretty definite, I guess AC is busy with the 1001 things he now needs to get underway (or has a celebration underway).

  • My God , the signal in this building is still bad.
    contracts exchanged at last!:)
    Handed notice ( and had a great chat ),with a lady in the pensions/wages / personnel dept.
    Monday is the day I will see the 'proper ' hr / boss / personnel
    Told a couple of people . Most of the company will know next week.
    Such a soulless place . My colleague won't know until he comes back intoN empty room in 10 days time .
