Anyone had one which really sticks out as something special?

I vaguely remember the IT manager job for the HOC being advertised about 2 decades ago, they were offering something stupid like £15k.

Meet The Lords
Oh this brings back memories. Did a gig there back in the late 90's when there was the full eclipse.
Cut up floppy disks and strapped them to glasses to watch it from the top of Parliament. Incredible view.
Was there when demonstrators broke in and run a mock around the Seargent at Arms department and attended a ceilidh for the 1000 anniversary of WestMinister Hall
Climbed Big Ben
Watched Tony Blair in Prime Ministers Questions from the Gallery
Got bounced at the bar by some 'Lord' who wanted discounted champagne.
Had my most cringy set of 'dates' 'failed legovers' with a senior female civil servant who kept getting pissed and had a crush on Jack Straw.
Let a door go and smacked on of Two Jags stooges in the head.
Incredible place. Reminded me of Hogwarts and out of my whole career, I think is my favourite gig.
