I go to school. Has to be more boring than most jobs i would assume.

you get to learn for free and get free meals and pocket money, and some other sod pays the council tax and bills? wanna swap?

I think Jderh is on to a winner there! Does he get your house and AMG Merc thrown in with that Darren?

[john_r]

Work....? nope, sorry that word doesn't register!

What do I do when I work? I'm selfish employed as a business consultant working on M&A and fund sourcing mostly. Also on retainer to a significant global BPO shop as an advisor on group strategic sales. Stops me getting bored anyway!

Can be nothing for several weeks and then 3-4 weeks hard graft on a M&A deal which could be anywhere - last project was in Vilnius (Lithuania) and the current one is in Barcelona.

No i'm not, I'm a member of the Manta Owners Club, but not the V8 register. Not really sure if the V8 register is still going, haven't heard much from it for a while now.

[Kinky]

No worries. I'm trying to get in touch with Dave Palmer who used to run the V8 register.

When I'm in Spain (like now) I work as a Driving instructor at Ascari Race Resort, when I'm back in the UK I work in Car Sales and do a bit of trading which I hope will start to make money!!!

Never one to miss out on an opportunity, do you install "home networks" ? (I dont mean just IT, but a hub that distributes multiple TV/Sat/DAB/ADSL). Its something we're looking at developing to compliment our existing range and would welcome some views from someone who installs our rival's products.

Or perhaps you'd be interested in a modular media distribution system?

Thats what I do
