Out of the Blue on Tuesday i get a call from my old Work colleague about a position locally with a new Eco firm.

Interview last night at 2030 and a Job Offer today. I start on the 8th May.

I need to buy a car. 1 job in 26 years then 2 in a week. !!!

Ah, "up cycling" ???
Tis the way forward that is.
Biggest problem I have with this is getting clients/customers to buy into it, some embrace it completely, used 2M tones of recycled concrete on a flood protection job, but a client on a wind farm wouldn't use tyre bales for floating roads even though EA were all for it.
Amazing what people are recycling now. All the best with it lad.

this job is really my ideal Job, I have to start from scratch and build a Team. Design and put the plant in place, then run it.
