Hi all,

First of all I hope you are all well. I just wanted to drop by and say hello and to let you know I have not forgotten you. I dont really have any successes to report as I have not been able to send any out due to a lack of stamp money.

I have seen some great replies on the forum though, Marvin Hagler, George Cole, David Essex and my favourite has to be the Alexie Sayle result, well done everyone!

I do have a bit of good news to share though, after what feels like a very long struggle I have finally found work! Sadly it is not what I would like to do but it is work all the same. For the last couple of weeks I have been working in a slaughter house throwing dead animals about - pigs to be exact. It stinks, it is heavy back breaking work but at least it is work and pays wages too and as a slight bonus I lost 4lb in weight on my first shift alone! lol

So now I am hoping that once all the bills are paid I will have a few coppers left over to buy some stamps with and get back into writing and collecting again.

Well done on all your successes, I hope you get many more.

Best wishes,

Steve.

Glad to hear from you Steve. Good that you found some work. Like you say, even if its not what you want, it pays the bills.

Congrats on the job Steve. When I was made redundant in July 1999, it was December 2000 before I got a job again, so I know you must be relieved to find something. Keep looking around and you will find something that suits you even better in time.
