I know all the stories about being posted 1,000 miles from where you ask for... BUT, just to give you hope.. It was always my burning ambition to work at Heathrow. When I was told that I had been accepted I wrote back thanking them and, not daring to suggest Heathrow, said "I would appreciate being posted somewhere in Southern England (I suppose now I'd better learn to play the bagpipes)." That's truly what I said...... a week later I received a phone call asking if I wanted to go to Heathrow....
