    Ask one of the Girlies!!!
    No, I meant further down the food chain.
    All the jobs I've seen are for top management. I was thinking more of something which involves actual work.

      You applied for a job in Palestine because you "fancied a change"?
      FFS!!! Where did you grow up..............the Divis Flats?

          I speak Arabic,but not fluently and find it a bit painful to read. Anyway it was the only place where my sex was not an issue. Been there before on hols. It doesn't matter where you are... you can still pop your clogs.

          ... and what pray tell is wrong with Divis :-) - I didn't live anywhere near there, but do remember seeing it on the news regularly?

            I am sure it is a fantastic place to live, but it is not exactly Horse and Hounds is it?

                Well I don't anymore, but when I did I always found that looking at my invoices was always a real tonic. Made my time in sh*tholes like Beirut, Calcutta, and Katowice a lot more palatable.

                  Never been to Calcutta or Katowice, but did you not find Beirut a little Chavvy (obviously depends on when you were there), but very Chavlike in recent years.

                    It looks somewhat more pleasant than Basingstoke.
                    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
