1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted June 22, 2015 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Apologies for going on about my offspring,( like parents do) but I am so chuffed that my youngest, Marc is at last thinking more about something other than food intake and calories..... He has just completed his first week of "work experience" at Harwoods Jaguar/ Aston in Chichester. Working alongside the technicians servicing mostly Aston Martins and then going out on road tests, he has had a fantastic week. He gleefully informed me that he has been out in 12 different Astons, (each of which cost about the same as my bungalow) for a good "thrash". He is 14 and I am a 54 year old petrol head but somehow he has been out in 12 more Astons than I have .... GIT !!! This week he is in a suit with the sales and service chaps, let's see which he prefers. He is keen on doing one of the apprenticeships on offer when he leaves school, wouldn't that be mighty fine ! : ) P. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBear Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Jammy Git! That's great news mate, glad to hear it. It will be interesting to see which side of the business he prefers that's for sure. Give him my regards old chap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kira Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 That's great Painless! Always best to find something you love doing for work, thus not having to work another day in your life. All the more so to do it early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted June 22, 2015 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Great to hear for sure. They don't really have a program like that in the States that I'm aware of, sounds like a great way to find a future. Most of all I'm happy to hear that is eating situation is headed in the right direction, every Sunday he was in my prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted June 22, 2015 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Good for him! Thanks for sharing Mick, always nice to read good news Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweper Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Nice to hear that Marc is doing well. He is the true hero. Doing stuff that we could only dream about. My two weeks of working experience was at a local offset printing facility. The owner was an alcoholic, nice fumes in there too, and I got payed a whopping 20:- for drowling over his beautiful-blond-short-skirt-tight-jumper-blond-sexy assistant. Well worth it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
