All of the above to be honest and i think when your superiours are speaking with you they need to do so with a level of respect and your self dignity is not for sale, and a total lack of challenge

no doubt the vast empty open waters can be a lonely place!
I know this as when i sailed across in the ARC (Atlantic Rally for Cruisers)
with my parents some yrs ago it can feel a very very lonely place out there when it just you and the open sea

Hi Jock,
Know how you feel matey.
I'm on vacation at the moment, and it feels so good to be home again, and going to events, having a beer in the put, going home every night, and pottering around on the car.
I always look around to see what's out there when I'm on vacation.......You never know what might be around the corner. There's more to this life than sailing around the oceans......I've been doing it now for the last 15 years, and that doesn't include the time I spent in the RN.

Good move Mike, exactly the same reasons I left Toyota, everybody else there just lets the shit go over their head but I'd had enough and walked without even so much as looking for another job.
Hope you find something you enjoy more
do you have any plans or did you just jack?

I think there is only so much anybody should be exspected to take really, good things come to those who wait and to be honest the thought of taking care of my other half for a while is actually quite appealing to be honest,
Look of for a for sale thread soon when i get to clear my garage out

RFA is the future. You know it. You'll be in such glamourous locations as Faslane, Glen Mallan and Loch Striven

Don't expect to go anywhere or do anything, but 30k a year to start with for sitting on your hole getting drunk every night works for me

Mike, might not be your kind of boat but have you heard of Leopard III. My company sponser it. I went out in it at Cowes a few weeks ago. Was awesome. We sponsered Maximus the year before. That was cool as well.

I have to admit when I saw that I just thought, "what the fuck are they doing wasting cash on that?".
