    re-1
    
    I'me sorry to hear you are leaving Digital good luck in the future.
    
    Good luck
    Grant

Good luck James.

It's nice to hear positive results and opinions from the YT Scheme (;-)), it's
a lot nicer to actually realise that someone has enjoyed and benefitted from it.

Being at Digital probably helped. As you say, despite their current problems
they are still a nice company to work/play for!

Good luck in the future...

Regards,

					Lewis

    
    It seems a shame that the YT scheme has got such a bad reputation,  I
    have been doing the same course as James and I'm leaving this Friday to
    spend a leisurly summer before going off to Brighton Polytechnic to
    study for a Computer Science degree in October.
    
    This probably is'nt the right place to discuss this so I'll stick to
    saying cheerio and thanks for all the info'.  I havent actually noted
    here very much as I drive a pregnant roller skate (VW Beetle!) so I've
    been noting in the AIR_COOLED conference.
    
    Regards,
    
    Russell.
      

 Well, bye and good luck on the course guys, I agree that Digital is a good 
place to work/play. This has reminded me of how little time I have before going
back to Poly, I will be leaving in just over a months time, and must say that I
will be sad to leave, but know that I will stand a better chance than many at 
being able to get back in (mostly for this conferrence of cource !?!?!?!)

 Hopefully though I will be able to get the RS2000 back on the road efore I go
back to Poly, and thus be able to take the Sprint off the road and slowly get
that into (near ?) perfect condition, although time and funds will be limited
next year. Without Digital none of this would have been possible.

    James,
    
    Au revoir et bon chance mon ami.
    
    Cheers,
    Robert.

 Well, the time has come that I leave Digital, as I mentioned a couple of notes
back I am going to finish my degree, and will hopefully be able to come back to
Digital afterwards.

 All the help that people have given me during my year has been great, and I
thank anyone who helped (and even anyone who wanted to, but didn't know the
answer). I am sure that I have learnt a lot more about cars from this conference
and have also the satisfaction of knowing that I have been able to help others
with the knowledge that I had before (not a lot I know, but there we go !!!)

 Anyway, goodbye all, and keep those engines running well.

    Well fellow car buffs, the time has come for me to turbo off into the
    wide blue yonder, becoming nothing more than a small black dot on the
    distant horizon.
    
    I have enjoyed tremendously your knowledge on the subject of
    automobiles and have been impressed by the humour with which you Ford
    bashers united against me :-)
    
    Take it easy, and don't turn the boost up too high.
    
    Gary.

    
    Well Gary,
    	I never thought i'd find myself saying this but for a Ford driver
    your not such a bad stick after-all.
    
    
    	All the best.
    
    			Andy....  8-)
    

    
    So long Gary and watch out for those idiots who drive a couple of
    inches off your front bumper! :^)
    
    Mark

My time too has finally come to an end with Digital. I've enjoyed a good 3� 
years here in Ferney Voltaire... i may turn up on the Digital circuit again,
who knows! If i do i'll be sure to check in here.

But until then, keep slogging, and play even harder!

Good luck to one and all.

Best regards,


					Lewis.

    
    Good luck,and keep skiing!
    
    Andy *at Val this year*

    
    
    	Well it's my turn now!
    
    	I know i've kinda become a stranger to the notes,i've just been
    double buried with work.
    
    Just before I go (tomorrow),i'd like to say a few things:
    
    A very big thanks to Phill Gill who's been running the fantasy Form 1
    note.Your a Gem and if you lived closer i'd buy you a few beers.
    
    The rest of you have been a great source of knowledge and have
    increased my enjoyment and understanding of cars and motor sporting events.
    
    My time at DEC has been good (4 years worth)but it's time to move on
    and so beware,i'm being armed with a company car!
    
    So it's just left to say,all the best to you noters and drive
    carefully.
    
    Bye!
    
    	Andy.
    
    so .
    	

    Best of luck Andy, thanks for your contributions to this conference.
    
    Phil Gill.

    
    Andy... Whats all this ( I've been working so hard)...
    
    Maybe i'm wrong but aren't you packing boxes until you leave because
    your a naughty boy... taking long dinner breaks and so on!!! And 
    now as a punishment have to start work and finish the same time as your
    manager, so that he can keep an eye on you time keeping....
    
    So dont give a good impression of yourself, because you dont fool
    anybody.... I just wonder if its your decision to leave or if your being
    kicked out...
    
    
    All the best,,,,,,,
                                                                           

    
    
    Mr Barefield.
    
    
    Blue is the colour...
    
    And i'm the Waister!
    
    Cheers Mate!
    
    	Andy.
    
    P.S.What are you doing in the cars notesfile? You know as much about
    cars as Dennis Wise knows about playing football.

    
    I know as much about cars as you know about pis**** up supermarket 
    windows after a couple of beers on a friday night....
    
    Andy..B

    
    	Well, after 21 years and 4 3/4 months, I've just been told that I
    leave on Friday with the compulsory redundancy package!
    
    	I am almost pleased to leave after all the hassles and pressures of
    the last 3 or 4 years, but to leave with only just enough redundancy
    money to have to pay Income Tax on it is, to say the least, unhappy
    making!!!!!!!!!!
    
    	Well thanks for knowing you all, for you fellowship in the
    conference(s) and the advice I've received on various motoring topics
    over the years.  Thank you all for bearing with me in my various
    rantings - most of them were mean't to be humourous, apart from those
    letting off steam.
    
    	A very happy Christmas to you all, may the Lord Jesus shine upon
    every one of you.
    
    				Malcolm.

    
    Goodbye Malcolm, it's been nice 'noting' with you, have a good
    Christmas and may the New year bring you many new opportunities...
    
    No doubt your path will cross that of at least one of us in the future.
    
    Graham

    All the very best for the future. Thanks for the phone call
    and the help, advice and contibutions to this and other notesfiles
    over the years.
    
    Royston

    Such a vast amount of notice.... the mind boggles.
    
    All the very best for your future as well as for Christmas.
    
    Nick

    ditto
    
    Best of luck for the future.
    
    Regards,
    Dan

    Best of luck Malcolm. Oh dear, when will it end?
    
    Cheers, Laurie.

Well folks its my time at last.....

They wouldn't make me redundant so I had to leave (only kidding - not! -)! )

I'm off - to pastures new - I'm hanging up the tool case but not entirely.

I'm moving over to one of our VAR's "Hawke Systems", Its been great knowing all 
of you - and its been riveting reading, and although I didn't formally introduce
myself I'll formally exit !!!!!

take care all - 

During my time with DEC I've had - 

Cavalier 2.0l SRi x 2
Cavalier CDi 2.0 
Citroen Volcane ZX Volcane 1.9l
And ......


The GSi Astra - nice car but I wont miss it !

the new job gives me a 2.0l car of my choice - fully expensed (yes that means
fuel card !!!!)

I will probably go for the Mondeo or the Accord but mean time I've got an SRi Cav 
or a Xantia - I'll manage !!!!

Cheers all - Andy

    	You can't keep a good fellow down!
    
    	After 12 months on the Dole (But all I got was my stamp paid 'cos
    I'd gone onto my measly Digital pension) where my Age of 60 and little
    experience of PCs prevented me being offered any other employment.  When
    my 12 months away from Digital was up I rang Amanda in Manpower to ask
    about the chances of employment, she obtained an interview next day for
    me and here I am as a contractor on X3030.
    
    				Malcolm.     

    
    Welcome back Malcolm !
    
    

    Hello Malcolm, welcome back. Its been quiet 'round here without you.
