I thought you might have been ill too when I read the first bit, then I felt better....ahhhh  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'm on a diet at the mo and working out everyday (need to fit into mess kit by June!) and I think that may have contributed to it, ironically getting fitter and leaner has made me ill....   :-?

you are obviously not eattin correctly then!  if your training that much you might want to look at protein shakes. and they should be ok with your diet.  

or the easy option is to get your mess kit altered! ;D ;D

I got close to signing off at my last place but I came around thanks to SWMBO and I will prob end up doing a full career.  But I do have an invitation to go see a defense contractor in Washington DC...

....6 figure salary... hmmmmm

Still love my job though, and the pension.  I'm guessing you stayed on Pay 75 like anyone who is sane!!
