Reading the obituaries in the times today, and Frank Blackmore designer of the MR died last week, Good colour photo of it, that looks as though it was taken when the DR stand was half built.

More likely to be a P45 or a TUPE contract when outsourced. I have the pleasure of working for Nationwide but not quite sure how much longer.

Me too.

It won't be long before Nationwide becomes more of an ethos ala Al Qaeda, than a physical entity.

Still at least the board members get treated well. Got to have a bit of bubbly for the board members.

Actually if you did get a GB tattooo you'd have to cover it up as no visible tattoos allowed any more. Don't forget to get into D2 you need to be level 2.2 or you get bounced out - its a pleb filter.

Oh yes... ComputaCenter here i come. Unless they see through my charade and realise i offer little, if any, use. At least they're forced to keep me on for at least a year, or it's a nice little redundancy payout to go in my "Buy a bar in the Bahamas" fund.
