But, the rules, red tape and general bureaucracy that prevented OF from getting help and screwed up t'other Dave's pension etc, is justy so frustrating.
Actually, strangely enough I didn't mind, because it gave me the kick start that I needed and do something I had been thinking of for a long time, and that was to move abroad, but with a house to keep and probably only getting it wrecked if it was rented out was holding me back.
Yes I did move abroad but unfortunately there was not enough work to keep me going during the winter period, so I came back (unfortunately).
It was one of those situations where there was plenty of work during the summer, as the locals were too laid back and never in a hurry to start, let alone finish a job, but come the winter, work was always given to the locals first and only as a last resort given to foreigners. (which strangely enough, I totally agree with).
But it was a nice six months while it lasted.
