More wallpaper shopping for me this morning. Couldn't find what we wanted yesterday. Out for a 30 miler this afternoon after lunch.

Just had a month without fixing more than a few dents, I am looking forward to getting stuck in again tomorrow.

3 months for me. Starting to think about what to put in my notice letter.

Nothing you might regret afterwards, would be my advice.

Definitely not, I have loved my job and most of the people i have worked with since first starting on the railway nearly 44 years ago. I was thinking maybe a couple of witticisms, and references to privatisation etc before getting to the business part of the letter and the date I want to finish on.

In my parting message to all of our staff, nationwide, I said that 'I wish everyone good luck for the future........I've a feeling you're going to need it......'
So far, I haven't been proved wrong.
I think I left at just the right time.

My parting message was to drop a turtles head on the Supernintendo's desk.

No, just keep it brief and factual. Witticisms etc are best avoided.

Sometimes they do have a way of backfiring on you.

Any National Trust Members on this thread ?

We will now have time to visit NT places rather than just talking about them

I seem to be repeating myself.
