And it's funny, when I was a civil servant I used to dread the question 'what do you do?' at parties, but now I'm trying to induce it in people!
Ahhh. That part will wear off after a few....months or years, believe me. I now try to avoid telling people what I do. It suddenly becomes the only topic of conversation!!! I might have been talking about something totally different, but suddenly I'm no longer an ordinary person - I'm a celebrity. It becomes, "Have you met Whirly; she's a helicopter instructor you know". I'm beginning to understand one of Bristow's North Sea pilots, who now tells people at parties that she has a part time job at the airport!!!!

But enjoy it , Penguina; it's fun for a while.
