Just wanted to say...woohoo!

Formal offer through today, notice went in smile

After a decade Im moving out of the aerospace world, OK so Im going to a rockets and sats mob, but it will be mostly ground based comms. That will be a bit wierd, ground based comms type stuff has always been, well, *targets* to me before!

Anyway, its kinda kewl and Im kinda happy. Oh and on an entirely ph related note, the logistics of the new job mean that adding to Mr Bransons profits will no longer be viable, so 4 wheeled motorised transport will be required once again. Im eyeing up 2.4 jtd 156 Sportwagons smile

Just seems sometimes in the P&P section all we get is bad news, doom, gloom and we are all going to be sacked, die, lose our houses or some other disastrous happening.

Thought Id post something positive for a change.

Well after years of running TVR and Lancia as daily drivers, even with their *really* concerted efforts at cocking up, Ive found Mr Bransons boys just that little bit too reliable smile Obviously I need to feel the pain of an Alfa to bring me back to normality.

And thats with Der's best efforts at trying to get me to buy into Turbo R ownership! Anyway, my alternative for my next "fun" car was going to be a 3200 smile One day I really must get the hang of this boring reliable motoring lark...
