I would like a nice cushy number, where I can work 9-5, Mon-Fri, not take work home, afford a decent quality of life and have my employer pay for my Masters degree. I want to work a field where there is a skills shortage, so that I can find work anywhere! I would like to avoid mega stress and long hours. Currently I see people breaking down all around. Worse than that is the insidious pressure which is turning young, intelligent women into bearded old spinsters.
I am talented, well travelled, educated (2:1), a fantastic communicator, organised and self motivated. I can give presentations, and develop resources. What shall I do?

I was clearing out some rubbish and i had totally forgotten i had a private pension with Scottish Widows with about £500 in it, i am sure i read an article regarding a possible takeover of them, if that is the case, who took them over and would there be a windfall payment to all customers who qualify, i am slighty off the pace with all this and confused. Have i missed a windfall as the last time they wrote to me was March 2003 and have moved address several times since, your help would be great. Thank You Grant.

Started out it had a Auction sign in the front Yard, then it has a FOR SALE BY OWNER sign in the yard,then It had a FOR SALE by owner Owner Financing sign in the Yard, Then it had a River Valley Sign in the Yard, Then it had a Lease sign, Then a REMAX sign. Even after they had moved in the REMAX sign stayed in the yard well then His Wife told me they were giving 80,000 for it. Well its a nice house we thought. But They started out to pay 699.99 a month then it was 799.99 then 810 then the contract was drawn up it went to 860 a month then to 924. We had the lights turned on and then some thing happened and the electric company came out and pulled the Light Meter said the wiring was below code for our town the Bills were running to high we found out it was a fire hazard. Then while I was there waiting with the Electric company I find out the thing has 9 layers of Shingles. Which will not pass HUD inspection.My son is buyer his wife is CO-Signer the guy will only talk to my sons wife >
