    I told them I will stay until July, so they have time to find someone else (that won't be easy)...gives me time to think of something else also.

    I might start a small kiltpin business :mrgreen:

    My wife Michelle earns enough (understatement), we've no kids, no debts, so there's no financial need to stay. Michelle likes to see a happy hubby and she supports my decision.

    :-D
    Go for it Robin. I was in a similar position 3 years ago when I worked for HSBC Bank - decided to leave and now work for the RNLI, a major UK charity, and have never looked back - less pressure and stress!

    Good for you Robin. And may I add that you are lucky man to have such a wife. Don't forget to remind her how lucky she is to have a man that wears a kilt. :-)

    I don't actually get involved in the SAR part. My job is fundraising - the RNLI relies on contributions from the public and gets no funding from government.
