What do you want to be when you grow up?

I'm with Alice on this one. Having had various jobs along the way I finally decided just to be happy and contented, both in work and outside of work. Since working at the garage some 18months ago, I'm very happy to say I'm both. I have a job I love and enjoy going to work, the only thing I would improve on is having more time to do what I want to do, but then, I wouldnt have the money to do it. So all in all, I'm a very happy bunny.

I wish you lived near me. I have the land, I have the livestock. I just wish I had someone with enthusiasim and energy to work with!

Hi Polly,

Put your location on your profile and I'll work out the train fare

Yup, me too!



OI!!! Broadway - you can't afford it - you've got a humungously expensive Birthday (at Christmas time, but with no reference to Christmas) Card to buy!!!!!

Am at a time when I'm tryin to work that one out too. Unfortunately I have a degree in nothing particularly relevant to anything I’ve been doing for the last ten years, live in the oil capital of Europe and know nothing about oil, and can’t afford either financially or time wise to retrain. Oh, and don't really know what I'd want to retrain in either. Better just keep buying the lottery tickets!

I spent most of my childhood and yoof training to be a ballet dancer, and there was no real question about my career path. Then after a foot injury, and a couple of other things, *in deep male cinematic voice* 'The Dream Was Ov-ah.'

So I fiddled around for a bit, worked on a magazine, and then accidently became a lawyer, which after years of hard work and learning to be good at it, I really love.

Now being a stay at home mummy to our two little ones, which I enjoy more than I ever imagined. I swore I'd be back at work within 4 months (that was two years ago).

If pressed though, I still want to be a ballet dancer when I grow up.

A market gardener! Or a cat - ideally one adored by his/her owner.
