Moderator DirtyDT Posted March 9, 2012 Moderator Posted March 9, 2012 Started the day still wound up about the outcome of a project meeting yesterday. Got a permanent job on promotion and a nice salary rise (I haven't had a "proper" job since 2000 as I normally contract) Came home to a cheque from the tax man for just under £1600. Very strange day!!
Moderator Cynic Posted March 9, 2012 Moderator Posted March 9, 2012 Well done mate. A pay rise, haven't had one of those sufficient to resuly in an amount of cash you would actually notice, (i'm talking maybee 2 quid a week) in years. The firm wants us to feel cuddly at a poxy (they say generous) 1.5%rise after dropping our basic by 6 hours a week.
Moderator Airhead Posted March 9, 2012 Moderator Posted March 9, 2012 great news mate, have you got a lottery ticket as well?
Moderator DirtyDT Posted March 9, 2012 Author Moderator Posted March 9, 2012 Cheers gents. No lottery ticket but a nice curry at 9pm Hmmmmm cash + SV = XT660 or Enough to finish the TS250 or A decent(ish) DT175

Sounds like a bargain to me . Should I send the cash by Western Union? Just give me your address in Nigeria. Do I need to drop the bike off to you? Good on you new"me" Good to hear positves about work , instead of redundancies,,, New bike on cards eh I have been contracting at the same place for two and a half years. It suits me there TBH. Plus a 5 figure payrise. Is is a great ride in with some fantastic twisties - always a good way to start and finish your working day. Something I rarely have had as at times I have worked all over the country. It does help justify a bike. There are car parking spaces there (albeit that they cost £20 a month from your salary). I will ponder what do do with the cash but it was unexpected. I do fancy a XT but, as you know, I only have little legs
