    I don't want anyone back home in Blighty complaining that the match is too early on Saturday. IF I get up for it (and that's a big IF at the moment) it will be 5.15a.m. I might just have to wimp out and get up for the second half. Oh to be a student again, getting up at 11am (or later)......... right, BigLil?

    Ah, I've always had the pleasure of mostly working from home during my studies. Even when I'm doing fieldwork, I don't have to camp out near the site like the other students. The only thing I do full time these days is lay on the settee, sometimes reading, sometimes watching the telly!:D

    The thing is, Andy, I've still not grown up!:D After a lifetime in the steel industry, my time now is certainly less stressful.

    When I did that, my wife insisted I hand the coins over to her, despite my protestations the find was for all of us as it was part of the family's heritage!:D

    Some very disrespectful comments towards Tyrone in this thread.

    Tyrone - I disagree with 99.9% of the things you post but well done if you managed to find another job so quickly in the current climate.

    Well as a bloke just coming up to 25 years service in the same place, and who would reckon himself unemployable elsewhere, I wish you every success

    In the meantime, your state pension becomes a smaller light at the end of a longer tunnel!
