Well folks and kitties, the job purrs you sent for my interview last
week seem to have done the trick. They rang me today to offer me the
job. I'm surprised and a little scared (let's face it, terrified is more
like it), having had the same job for almost 14 years now, but I think
I'll be taking the plunge. It's time.

I will have to get myself a new anorak though. They have aeroplanes
where I'll be going.

Congratulations! That's great news. And of course you can accessorise your
anorak with some kitty hair.

I'll definitely get my fuzzheads to work on it for you. They're loud and
have the knack of making the purring business look like hard work.

The job is database administrator, same as I do at the moment. But there
are no aeroplanes where I work now :). More details after I actually
sign on the dotted line!

YAY!!   Congratulations.  I'm sure you'll be fine after the initial settling
in period ) which always scares ME.
Just remember that you will not be expected to be brilliant at the job on
your first day - you have to learn what they expect from you and it is up to
them to teach you.
Lots of luck!

Woooo, Helen that's such awesome news!!!  Congratulations, I'm so happy
for you.  I know you've been wanting to make a move for a while now.
I'm very curious about where you'll be working though.  Airplanes, kewl!
I know you don't want to post it here but maybe an email...<hint, hint>

What's an anorak and why is it needed in an aeroplane?

Just a silly British joke. An anorak's a sort of hooded waterproof
jacket notoriously worn by geeky nerdy types when trainspotting, or
planespotting in my case.
I should add that I do not expect to be getting in said aeroplanes
myself, just drooling from a short distance.

That's wonderful news.  I'm sure it'll be stimulating trying something
new and different.

Congratulations, Helen!  We hope it's everything you want it to be.
Now, what's an anorak?

Same as a parka.  A kind of jacket / overcoat.

Congrats!  What do planes have to do with jackets though?

Maybe Helen will be on an aircraft carrier or a big holiday cruiser
with a helicopter deck. Then you need watertight clothing and you are
very near to airplanes.

Also a cat will fit in nicely on a big carrier or cruiser. Big ship,
should be lots of tasty rats. And if not, some thousand people ready
to play with 24/7.

So the anorak definitively should have a pocket for a cat. Maybe
around the neck?

You have to wear an anorak while planespotting. It's tradition.
