My plan B is making sure that plan A doesn't go tits-up“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Plan B is an alternative to Plan A.
If you're happy doing Plan A, then you don't need a Plan B.
But if you're just biding your time until Plan B is right, then Plan B will become Plan A and you won't need to worry about a Plan B any more.
Unless of course you had a plan C, and Plan B was a stepping stone to Plan C, but you had to start with Plan A first. Then of course, your Plan C, would become Plan B, when Plan B has become Plan A. Plan A then disappears.
Simples.
Now, does anyone have a Plan D, they'd like to discuss?What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

My Plan B is to work in a warehouse.
The money will of course be rubbish by comparison, but then it would be rubbish if I joined the police.
I fancy the empty-headed monotony of trudging around a massive distribution centre in my steel toe-capped boots.
I'll probably last two days.Comment
