Tagging is @kacang but it doesn't work on some mobile devices.
I worked for the Australian government all my life from 18 to 58, except for two years in the UK where I worked for London Uni and then the Inland Revenue. I did a law degree in my 30s and then worked as a government lawyer until I got promoted beyond the basic law stuff. For the last 13 years I was a senior executive working in the arts. That was the best government job around - I got to go to all the shows, all the exhibitions and plenty of parties. I've been retired for 7 years and now do some volunteer work. Apart from Macmillan, I do a weekly shift in the ICU at my local public hospital, supporting the relatives of patients, and one day a week at an oldies day club.
Now Mr Sox, if you'd run a brothel, your girls would have looked like this:
I have also worked with children so scribbled this. Worked through play, as a nanny, taught autistic children in a residential school and home educated, and am an Early Years Creative Arts. BEd hons teacher.
Doh can't get the bold to unclick!
Cheers
Koo don't we get about! We are a right bunch...intercontinental and in high and low places...or at least with those ambitions : )
Take care....my feet are so cold...its almost zero degrees outside and the wind is buffeting! Hope you are all cosy

Best wishes to everyone, hope you all had a reasonable night's rest. I'm off down to Devon today to see my Mum for a few days. No internet there, so will be 'off piste' until Sunday pm. Good luck and hugs to everyone who has appointments/treatment/procedures booked in between now and then...

love you to the moon and back and more , I'm always here for you whenever I can stay awake lol
by the way thought I'd join in and say my job was a midwife working for the NHS I loved it up until I had to take retirterment due to ill health , but haven't looked back doing that it was hard to make the decision but the time I have been able to spend with my children, family and friends is so much more worthwhile
