On Tuesday there were lots of people from Vertu at work to welcome us and to start installing and explaining all the new systems etc. One of the people, a lady in Marketing......used to live two doors away from my childhood (from six years old) home and I've known her since she was born. Small World, in'it? Her brother was a very good friend and we shared many special times from young childhood through to our twenties.....playing, climbing, den making, darts, throwing arrows, pushbikes then motorbikes and airguns. We shared many great times plinking and hunting, stripping and tuning and testing etc. And getting drunk. Very, very drunk!
Great times!
Well, that’s a real coincidence and chance meeting there Tone. Lovely recollection of your childhood days too .
I hope all goes well with the new owners with not too much ‘unnecessary’ change as I know you’ve been happy there since leaving that last shower of shite. When you say “new systems…” do you mean computer systems ? I know getting to grips with that was one of your little anxieties when you started. Hopefully not too much change there for you.

. Just a headset that plugs into the 'puter. And the phones aren't working yet for all of us due to the Internet to and around the building being so poor, slowing installation for everyone down. They're having to organise getting that sorted. The various systems we'll need to use will, no doubt, be okay once we're used to them, but even trying to do that right now is tricky. Pretty sure it will fall into place once we're using it more and becoming more familiar. We don't have access yet to half of the things we need in order to do the job, so it's all a bit unsettling and confounding at the mo'. It's pretty much paperless and heavily reliant on the 'net, but if that goes down it'll be fun......The next few days will see us all still feeling like fish out of water, for sure; just hope all clicks into place soon.
