Title: I'm Back.
Post by: skorpio on January 05, 2008, 12:05:21 pm: As it say's I'm back in the land of the favored few ;) ;D and looking forward to June ;D
Not been a good couple of years, :'( got back from LM '06 to find I'd been made redundant - not funny when you're the wrong side of 50 {the age discrimination law is rubbish, believe me} - not much work for mechanics of my age, they all want young kids ::) :o.
So opted for retraining to take my class 1 HGV, trouble is the time involved in dealing with any govt body, and whilst waiting for the funding and then the training I wasn't allowed to do any sort of full time work or I lost the funding ::) :o :( so became a "househusband".
Not a lot of income, so cutbacks were made :(
Got my class 1 and now back in full time work ;D so will be at LM '08 looking forward to meeting you all again :D ;)
Won't be posting during week as I'm away "tramping" into N. Europe all week ;D can only catch up at w/ends.
