# it was twenty years ago today ...
.... that I started work full time for LUL. No wonder I resemble an old wreck ;-) Only another 5 to go before I get my 25 years "long service" award and can then keep my staff pass and other travel benefits for life. -- Paul C - "the big camp bastard" (tm d.a.r.s.y) VFR800 | ZX6R | R1150GS BOD#5, two#4, BOTAFOT#23, BOTAFOF#4, URMSBC#09, COFF#09 Admits to working for London Underground! |

Now then, the bus pass is safe and you've got until Bully's special prize board revolves to decide if you want to gamble the cash for this weeks prize... it's... a speedboat... |
