Done

SO finally the email came out...

I handed in my notice to my present employer some 2 weeks ago and have been biting my tounge for months now, since I was first approached about the new job.

We found someone internally who is suitable and willing to take over from me. It's going to be tough for a time. but he is very good.

As with all these sorts of anouncements, the email came out after the normal work finishing time which means most will read it monday morning. A few have already been told and mixed responces from suprise, congratulation and shock. only a few have disagreed with my choice. That gives me greater confidence in the decision too.

Now just the 6 weeks till finish date and then the new start as a contractor to an oil company
