Cheers. She has been saying for some months that itās time for her to go; this seems to have provided her with the catalyst. I donāt think sheās sad about it, but Iām somewhat concerned of the impact on her daughters, who may feel guilty that they couldnāt do more.

The light is really going to hurt the governments eyes when they remove their heads from up their collective arse. Trumpesque denials wonāt convince forever.
And it will only get worseā¦

Once the dust has settled Iāll probably start a āLook at meeeeee!ā thread to look at options, but I like the Gato 250 thatās on the bay at the moment.
So anything in that category (under Ā£2k, ss integrated, preferably with a good DAC) would be a contender.

Suspiciously few / none, the day-rate contract way of working was my preferred option.
I turned the job down as a permanent role, but let it be known (repeatedly) that a contract would be a very different proposition.
I think this message eventually filtered back to the employer and they immediately offered it again at the top end of any rate I would have been looking for.
For several reasons I happen to be in the right place at the right time. I may be telling a different take in 6 months time, but at the moment it looks like a win for both parties involved.

Do astronauts crap less in space because of the food they eat?
I read somewhere that for the Apollo missions, the meals were designed to be ālow residueā. Dunno if thatās still the case.
Mine, on the other hand, are always āhigh residueā
