Paul, you sound like you are getting things straight! My firm has shrunk from 30 to 6 in the last few years, so the ones that are left cling like it was the only thing keeping us alive - and maybe it is! But my job before this was with a surveying firm, and I did lots of drafting, but also did lots of other things, including stomping through swamps and frozen woodlands for 8 or 10 hours a day. I miss that part a lot. And the older one gets the harder it is to go back.
To my credit tho, I did ditch the car! I don't like 'em.

Know what you mean about being stuck in front of a computer all day!!! I used to be a SQL programmer for the Royal Bank of Scotland (credit card fraud section)until they did me a favour last year and made me redundant which got me out of the rat race at last , previous to that I was a window cleaner and a 250 mile a week cyclist, slight difference!!! now I work part time,cycle everywhere as I got rid of the car, couldn't justify the expense, and prefer to be outside rather than stuck inside, just starting to get the balance right in my advancing years,, ha ha
