Title: Moving up North-er
Post by: Clive on March 04, 2019, 08:22:24 PM
So, like Mr Olds, it looks like we’re off soon too.

Moving over the water to Northern Ireland in the near-ish future. Just house hunting at the moment and getting all our ‘ducks in a row’, but will be off sometime in the summer if all goes well.

Now...........does anyone want to buy a classic mini project? Can’t take it with me............... :( :(



............oh, and a T4..... :( :(

That's a big career change!
Do the Army give some sort of skill training for those who leave?

They do. But I left ten years ago, so this has all been off my own back
