      Aye, you are right of course - - my problem is, when I get to the stage I am at the moment, my inner 'country boy' comes out and wants to go and sit in the middle of nowhere for a bit.

      I really wish I could Jenny, sadly the opposite is what needs to be done. I'm just fed up of having the same conversations about the same things with the same people, and never really seeing any improvement. I happen to care (a lot) about what I do, and I cannot stand it when things are going to moo poo and I am the only one that seems to care.

      Ho hum.... never mind me, I'll be right in the long run.

          Take yourself back to bonny Scotland FC, just think of those long glorious summer evenings and all those wide open spaces where a person gets to think uninterrupted. :)

            Don't go to Scotland, you might not be allowed back into the E.U. :yikes:

              That is where my head is - - pack my bags, sod off back home, and stuff the rat-race; sadly, it is not as easy as that.

              Very much appreciated mate - - with my back, I'd need a big ol' blow up mattress though :biggrin:

                By the end of September, I might be a non-EU immigrant living in England..... still, that should make me qualify for a council house? :snork:

                  FC.....My family spent a week here on the island having never seen the place before, when we got home our house was put on the market and my husband was in a position to be able to make himself redundant from his job. Nine months later we were here lock, stock and barrel and haven't looked back twenty plus years on. :) If you want it enough it's possible and obstacles can be got round, believe me.

                  Pack your bags I'll carry them for you, Scotland is where I'd like to be but I got out voted by the family. :doh:

                        FC, it's hard to not care, but some times you have to take a step backwards and let things happern, Miss Jiff had the same and it was driving her mad, she had a little talk to her boss about standing down as Manageress and go part time and have a month off unpaid to get mind back right, she got what she wanted, on her month off things started to show up and go wrong, we then had a phone call from a lorry driver and the things were being said " i didn't know she does so much to make this place work" She cared a lot about what she does and would change that, one time she was asked not to do some thing which cost money, so she said about the things that might go wrong and that it would be on there heads, it went a head and yes it went wrong big time it cost the company that she was doing work the on be half of £120,000+ she felt bad but some one had to learn a lesson :grphg:
