[i]I'm 32 & don't define myself by what I do to pay the bills[/i]

Astounded and perturbed to be 40, feel about 20.

Registered Social Worker with an Old Age Psychiatry Team. Employed by local authority, hosted by NHS.

Trapped in a relatively well paid job. Would like to go back to being an outdoor pursuits instructor, but can't afford to get all the tickets you need these days and have debts to pay and kids to support.
