It's Policeman Plod here to see what you've been up to. I see that you're an educated young lady with virtues that I've not seen in many a day. Therefore I'm letting you off with a warning. Wear stilts, then I'll not be making remarks that aren't meant for the likes of you!

Trolls in Toytown. What is the world coming to?

Hold on - I live indoors not in toytown.

but dig a bit deeper and you'll see all is not as it first seems. on the work front.

and, y'know, i'm gnomist - if i catch Big Ears anywhere near here there'll be a ruddy riot.

I too worked at a Little Chef. I lasted about 10 days. And the number 19 left blank - tantalising...

remember the uniforms?

[shudders]

which reminds me, i've left out one job i had in another chain restaurant....that had this hideous, and i mean hideous, uniform: bright yellow polyester blouse, black skirt and shoe-lace tie a-la-americana something or other. and silly hat too.

i sometimes wondered who was responsible for agreeing that that was 'the look'...it's a wonder we didn't frighten everyone away.

Trolly! You've been an assistant producer at the BEEB? I'm impressed!

Good luck with the counselling - in a monstrously unfair and value-crazy society like this one it's a wonder anyone at all manages to stagger out the door in the mornings what with their leaden divers' belts of depression around their persons. ( Must be a belly full of Gold Blend that kick-starts 'em )

You're doing well girl. As your counseller may advise. . . "j u s t . . . .r e l a x. . ."

it's a mad, crazy world. i've felt so low these last few weeks, but there should be some resolution on or about the 18th Sept, which will enable me to move on...to #19..and who know where that will take me?

re the BEEB - it was fun, really, pay was crap tho', and the commute (from north Essex) too much in the end...

but life goes on.
