Got my "At Risk" letter today at work and luckily for me I'm not up for redundancy. I know at least 8 work colleagues who are.

It doesn't mean that they will definetly go it means they will have to apply for a different position. But there will be 40 compulsary positions to go. In total 175 jobs to go but a lot are voluntary.

Took my handlebars and wheels of my dob today and primed them with undercoat for a nice fresh coat of black paint tomorrow.

Still no news form the supplier who sold me the rotary encoder so I can get a schematic drawing to fix the pulled out wires. pretty annoying really.
