fuzzyduck Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Ohhhh I'd love to, but I suspect quitting my current job for seasonal work in the leisure industry would be a mistake. Maybe in a few years, when I've finished selling my soul to Satan for a pile of bricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I logged in last week and saw the Need a Job title, passed on the info to my husband Ian, he met with David last week and starts work on Thursday . He was made redundant last March after 10 years with the same company and has only had intermittent work since then. He has welding and fabricating skills along with forklift licence and has helmsman cert, so obviously skills that they can use! So cheers and many, many thanks.
