Thought it was a good picture of 3BR until I read the nameboard - have you got inside toilets there?

I think you could probably throw a stone from TBASC to the new ROC. Unless it's the thought of sitting in front of a VDU all day that is sending you towards the job centre!

With a reduction from nearly 6000 signallers down to just under 2000 signallers not all of us will get jobs sitting in front of VDUs. So even though half our panels at TBASC have their migration dates for conrol period 5 (the rest go in control period 6) the exact details are still thin on the ground on how it will effect the staff.

On the other note yes the new TBROC is going up quick now and is within spitting distance from us. We used to be able to see it until they put in the new security doors with no windows in. Or maybe that was their plan lol.
