Yeah, I know, I could trawl through the member lists, but that's far too obsessive for me, and besides, loads of people haven't put it in, so I was just wondering, what do you do for money?

Me? I'm on benefits at the moment. Working hard on my book, and I work at Game on a Sunday. Oh yeah, and I'm a mum, not a naturally tidy one either, so I find that job hard! :lol:

I'm an occasional cartoonist, amongst other things. Or, as my business card puts it, "Charlatan, Humbug and Imitation Humorist."

I work as a mechanical design engineer, designing bioscience lab instruments that will reduce the need for drugs testing on animals by automating alternative, labourious methods.

When I'm not doing that I'm usually out and about in the great outdoors as a hunter gatherer or mending the old land rover. Oh - and indulging the single malts given the chance :wink:

I work on a corrigator in a cardboard box factory. Hell of a machine uses about 10 ton of paper an hour. Money's good. Its very noisy (110db) and dusty. I absolutley hate the place. Rather be out in the wilds with my dogs.
Looking at the local flora and fauna. I was watching a Grass Snake the other day untill one of dogs ran up and stood on it. It shot off into the grass at lightening speed never to be seen again.
