Not living the GSF life no, but being a branch manager at GSF tends to suck the life out of you. Its a very unrewarding role in recent years.

Last day today....

I'll add my good wishes, Vince. With so little daylight at this time of the year everything seems pretty dark, but having something to look froward to means at least there is a bright prospect to enjoy.

Well, the new job is going ok...phew! Stress levels are at zero which is perfect.

On the car front, with the help of some on here, a shorted cigarette lighter was diagnosed as the cause of fuse 36 constantly blowing...i removed it last night and refitted it albeit with no power feed. I dont smoke so no bother...got the stereo working again though...hooray.

I also gave it a good wash as its been my daily all week as my company car hasnt arrived yet..at least ive got to spend more time in the xm : )

Just off for a run over to cheshire oaks on the motorway then ive got a mini to collect which ill be detailing tomorrow.
