What job do you do for a living ?
 

Being the nosey old bag that I am, I thought that I would ask you all if you would mind sharing with us all what you do for a living when you are not out being budding WSB racers !


Me... Well I am just a humble auxilliary nurse / phlebotomist working with the District and Practice Nurses at a local medical centre !

:)

OK, I'll go first then.
Run my own computer/IT business mainly in the storage networks/devices market, but maintainance and repairs aswell.
Keeps me in dukes and parts.


PS, I hate computers, they are a total pain in the bum.

cheers
