As some of you may know I used to have a shop near the cathedral here in Lincoln,on,Steep hill ! Now for those of you that have been to Lincoln you know what I mean.Steep or what.had to give it up because poor old me couldn't cope anymore with the hill.spent more time struggling to breath than doing what I should've been doing.But I now have work... Now before you all get excited and back slapping,it s voluntary,couple days a week,doing admin in a disability centre.I can do that,! not too strenuous and gives me back a bit of self respect..... I Got A Job
Yippe...I gotta job: As some of you may... - Lung Conditions C...

Congratulations Jambo. Well done that man!!!
The missus is getting wine out......! Think she pleased won't be under her feet for a whie
Congratulations and well done!
Congratulations well done you. I know what you mean about steep hill, no way I can make it any where near the top. What shop did you have there ? Enjoy your wine and the new job. Best wishes Julie
Had a tearoom, i love it up there.even now I go sit in the square outside the castle and people watch.its a great pastime, xx
Yes I love it there too especially the cathedral area. Used to go to the christmas market did not make it this time and last year I think it was the weather caused it to be cancelled. Is the cheese cafe still at steep Hill? Julie x x
No Julie,unfortunatly it closed about a month ago,such a shame,was there for years,it's empty now.still the majority of shops the same,the old book shop halfway down has gone now aswell,It's still a great place though.always full of character and fun xx
Well done Jambo - am jealous! All the new people to meet and oh to be appreciated! Brilliant, hope you enjoy it. Libby x
Congratulations on the job. The good thing about it being voluntary is the flexibility if you need to change days for any reason.
Good luck to you jambo
Jambo, I recall that steep hill. My sister was over from the United States. My husband parked the car at the bottom of that steep hill. We climbed with difficulty, to find a car park at the top. My sister has never forgiven us (smiley) And Harry Secombe was recording for a tv show at the top. Those were the days. All the best with your job. Love Annieseed xx
Absolutely cracking news Jambo. Well done! I think you will make director in a couple of years. Best regards and good luck with it, Bobby
Way to go !
Congratulations Jambo. I remember Steep Hill we went to Lincoln with a coach party fortunately the driver took pity on us all and dropped us by the cathedral never had to try the hill thank god. I would have still been there I will raise a glass to you later on to wish you luck with your new job.
Fantastic news Jambo, well done! Alison
I know the steephill. That part of Lincoln is lovely with the Catherdral and Castle. I might be able to climb the steephill now but would need about 10 stops before I got to the top! Congrats on job, its nice to feel that you are doing something useful.
I know how that feels,used to get so breathless after 10 steps,some days had to ask wife to go get the car cos I just couldn't do it.it was areal slog. X
I know it too. It is steep, I don't think I could do it now unless I stopped every few yards. It's a lovely city though. I'm sad to hear some of those shops are gone.

It's such a shame,its a lovely atmosphere there,but what with the recession and everything it' seems to have lost its appeal. Just don't get the tourism now xx
Well done voluntary work brings it's own rewards.
Well done,admire your tenacity,a job is a job,& gives another purpose in life!
