TheGreatAndPowerfulOzMaybe in person too.
Nope - met him once; seemed to be a very nice guy; quiet and unassuming. Did see him another time in a restaurant in London where he was holding court - people were driving him nuts even though he didn't order any...

However, please, in the future capitalize all proper nouns / names of companies.
Scientists should study wordplay here at CP. It's top notch.

Not bad, at least there is work there. I was down near Torquay, nice beaches and countryside, but not much else.

My Dad worked for BR, and grew up in Torquay so know that area well. The one thing is you have the docks at Plymouth so if you can get get it there are Navy and support roles there, a friend of mine fell on his feet he was laid off on Wednesday went to see GF/Significant others parents and got a Sys admin post with Navy!

Two days ago I found 3 mm of frost on the car, hadn't prepared the alcool sprinkler I always keep in the car during Winter and had no time to shave the ice properly.
Basically I drove to the train station with a 5x5 cm^2 of clear windshield...

You must not live in a region where frost is a common occurrence, otherwise you'd know you'd get pulled over for pulling a stunt like that.

I do live in a region where frost is a common occurence, just not in half October. I recognize that my stunt was dangerous, but I absolutely had to get my GF to the train ontime cause it was her first day of work.
I drove as safely as possible as I'm not in a hurry of participating in another car crash, I'm not *that* irresponsible.

I'm sure most cops would think "well that makes it all okay in that case".

Better a fine than losing my job, anyway.

So this is my interpretation of what I've read so far. Correct me if I'm wrong on any of this:
Essentially what I read is that you're willing to endanger yourself, endanger others, and break traffic law for the sake of a job.

You should move down this way - you never need to run to catch the train, because there's never a train to catch!

Shut up ya Whinging Pom, you don't know cold till you come to Australia in October and have a day drop below 20 Celsius. I mean I had to put a singlet on today. I don't mean under a shirt or anything, just put it on also needed to put the thongs on, the bottoms of my feet were freezing.
