A new start in life
« on: December 29, 2006, 19:08:45 »
Its now confirmed and i can finally reveal my future plans
As of the 8th of January i become the newest member of the Devon 4x4 team
I'll be looking after the parts and mail order departments.
I will off course get to drive the trucks too  :wink:
I'll be living down in South Molton from Monday to Friday (in my caravan) and commuting back home at weekends.
The family will join me in the summer (eldest daughter has her GCSE's to do first).
I'm very excited and honoured to be asked to work for Devon 4x4.
Its not oftern you get the chance to work in the industry that you love.
I cant wait to start work (not often you get to say that now, is it  :wink: )
See you at the show's
 :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

Excellent, I hope it all works out according to plan!  I'm a huge fan of Devon (the county) and envy you the prospect of moving down there.  D4x4 seem to be going from strength to strength.
