I left at my 22-year point in 1983, as a Ch.Tech simtech. We emigrated immediately, I joined an airline as a simtech here, until said airline "went under" two years ago. No regrets whatever, but I have to confess I DO miss the "Mob", curiously the Taceval part!! I suspect a touch of the nostalgia, after 20 years away, but I look back on almost all of it as fun.
I was very well paid as a shift-working simtech shift-controller, I have my service pension paid to me here, it's Summer, what more could a man want? The beer is AWFUL, the wines are WONDERFUL, it's almost knocking-off time!

Kind regards,

TheNightOwl.
