    Well done, colonel. Hope you'll be happier there.

    You'll still be Northern, though. Bad luck!

    ITYM Lloyd Lifestyle, but WGAF. I'm fucking chuffed for you mate, now
    just make sure you get your fair share of hospitality passes for WSB and
    BSB etc.

    Give my regards to Billy, Hazel and crew too :)

    I know the folk he'll work with. I think he'll be very happy there. Most
    of the office and warehouse staff have been with the company for
    donkey's years.

    Are they a spinoff of Lloyd's of Hamilton, or a totally seperate
    enterprise with nothing more than a name in common?

    The same George Lloyd who owned the bike shop in Hamilton. The company I
    work for is owned by his 3 children.

    Well, I thought Lifestyle too, but the gate guard (actually employed by
    an unrelated haulage firm by the name of Murray) said Leisure. I have
    every intention of getting what's fair.
    Will do.

    Not seen the term Leisure used in anything I've had contact with, but I
    wouln't be surprised if it is used.

    There was a gate-guard? Never seen that there before. I usually just
    drive straight in and down past the big warehouse/workshop on the left,
    straight up to our loading doors. The yard is a bit potholed, so go
    easy.

    Yeah, well, more your actual "bloke I asked for directions in the shed"
    sort of thing, really. Too bloody right the yard is potholed; not the
    sort of place you want to take a Bandit 1200, although I did...

    Anyway, ta to all for congrats. Now to write a resignation letter for
    my current job.

    "Dear boss, **** off." No, too short...
