How about that then... and yes, I agree!!! :hurray:

BBC News - Is working with your hands better than just with your head?

I can speak as someone who went from management to the tools eleven years ago. I'm definitely happier and healthier but not as wealthy as I was ......but I'm still working on that :lol:

Same as Sandyfloor...22 years in Banks / Building Societies with over half that in management positions and now 3 1/2 years tiling - I liked the money I got in the financial services game, but hated everything I did. Yes I do miss the people, but I can stand back after half an hour and get job satisfaction, when I used to come home and not know what I had achieved.

I can also sleep soundly at night and not panic about this or that target. I have also dropped a couple of "dress sizes" (no I dont wear dresses....well,... er...!!!) and feel so much healthier
