Poor Chris V seems to have fallen off HIS bike far more than I have in recent times, ha ha ha! I resigned from the Pubic Service today, effective 16 April. It felt goooooood! The Big Boss did his usual hierarchical bullshit thing, and told my Section Head to pass on his congratulations, despite his office being only 20 feet from my workstation (and I've been in the bloody department longer than HE has, FFS! Would it be so very painful to come out of his ivory tower for 45 seconds?) Heaven forbid he should actually speak to a minion. I mean, even the uber-conservative Jim Hacker Headmaster at my new school will actually TALK to me in person... That sort of capped everything off, really. I thought "Betty, ol girl, you did the right thing." Oh, and the school emailed me my contract. As well as a bit of professional respect, I'll be earning 20K more there than I am as a pube. (Yeah, I know I'll have to work a hundred times harder for it, but it's (mostly) work I love doing.) Will be good to not struggle with bills anymore. Maybe I can actually afford some decent heating for my freezing Canberra house! betty

Maybe I can >actually afford some decent heating for my freezing Canberra house! Sounds good. Looks like we are both into life changes. I just need somewhere permanent to live now and I'll be one happy little KevvyBear. Checked a place out in Bondi tonight. $240 plus bills. It was bollocks. Obviously paying for the 5 minute walk to Bondi Beach. Sod that. Unless I can see the beach out my window, I am not paying that. I'll finid a sharehouse hovel in the city and use funds for fun at weekends. Kev
