Called across to the comcen were the PBX was out due to a near miss. DISTAFF had hung a severed 6million core cable up for the BDR team to deal with. I assessed the job and handed over to the lads who promptly put the radio on to ease their afternoon. The demeanour of the DISTAFF member changed with each news report and in the end he looked at me and said - Thats me f@@@@ed then.. before explaining that in the course of the afternoon his mortgage repayments had risen to over £1000 a month. It was the day we came out of the ERM and interest rates rose by 3% in a matter of hours. I dont think I ever met a TACEVAL staff member less interested in what we were doing!
