It has taken my 20 year old son the best part of a year to find work, and not through lack of trying, so I know its not easy, and for an older man with a family and financial commitments unemployment can be devastating. Hope all goes well for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it in a place called "Jepardy" as I once read in a newspaper that there were 10,000 jobs there Job is based in Hexham with sites in London, Thanet, Hull and the Isle of Syke, that's international companies for you ...

So Hexham would be your "local" one. But with your luck, you're bound to get a position on the most remote one, - Isle of Skye. and when you're stuck up there in the remote barren far north I bet there is no easy Internet connection to Sheffield History :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London is just overpaid ^%$£$%$* sitting in expensive office space. Been a long while since I've been to Syke ... 30 years to be precise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there might be some consternation if you send stuff to Syke rather than Skye, RichardB!!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveH Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Think there might be some consternation if you send stuff to Syke rather than Skye, RichardB!!! So when you went there 30 years ago where exactly did you go? I have never heard of Syke, - where is it? I know where Skye is though, - and even where the sky is ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My trip to Rassay/Rassey however you spell it was a geological fieldtrip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
