By birth she is (I think)

The one I went to see was John, his greatest fault is being a native of Scunthorpe of all places  :wink:  :roll:
But in his dim & distant past he was as a Field Service Engineer for Galion, a construction machinery manufacturer, his 'patch' was Africa (has he got some tales to tell :lol:  :lol: )


No but seriously, it was nothing much, no more money :( , or promotion (or better still a job somewhere else)

It was simply to tell me I've got 20 days holidays & lieu-days to take before the end of March. Boy, did it make me happy for the rest of the day 8)


Just had to share that good news with you :lol:
