Back in work

Another day in work and I have not written in my blog for nearly a week. The letter of intent to retire caused a few surprises I can tell you! It is all over the job now but after 33 years I have been part of the furniture and many drivers and other members of staff have wished me well. It has been very touching to know so many wish me well for the future.

I have been asked about having a leaving do over our club and I will have a think about that. I am not a big club user as the disabled facilities are not that good, but I would like the chance to have a good send off. I will have a chat to the guy who runs the club and see what he thinks about it.

The weather has stayed damn cold again but I guess as it is still only the end of January it is what we can expect. More snow is forecast but hopefully not to much over this part. I for one can do without the damn stuff.

I also have another blog called ' On the Buses' about the years that I have spent working in the public transport industry. This week a writer based in Chicago wrote in saying that he had been reading the blog and was writing a book. A very small part would be based around a bus conductor in Cardiff and he wanted some advice on the routes that he would take and the area he would conduct.

For one I was thrilled that anyone had read the blog in the first place! And of course I send on all I could think of about the conductor and work back then.

Right it is time to close as I am off to work.
