I am now unemployed and looking for work in the security consultancy field. I might do a course or two and attempt to specialise in IT security.

 

Just as a tip - if any of you don't have a job and need car insurance, never tell them you are unemployed! - They whack the premium right up. If you have a partner that you are living with, tell them and normally they can put you down as a house person. If you look after the kids etc definitely go for that option. Fortunately, the guy I spoke to was also ex military and because my redundancy was recently he managed to do that for me. It saved a fair amount of money!

Ditto.... and the pay isn't so great even when you own your own shop eh?

 

We'll never  make a pound or two (dollar or two ;D )......

 

The cycle industry isn't a trade...... It's an infection :lol:
