well would you credit it. civil engineering in swindon, i thought they would have laughed them all out of town after that roundabout incident.
it's very nice to hear from other people on the guide. i hope you checked out the plethora of articles that i have written, one of them should be in the approved guide soon (after heavy editing).
cool, i'm of to do some thing that involves lifting, probably.

Leanne (ACE and Scout) Posted Nov 9, 2000

cheers

Swindon wasn't that full of traffic lights when I lived there. Yes there were a few but less than your average town that size. Roundabouts are a different story though.
Hello Fellow Engineer
Leanne (ACE and Scout) Posted Nov 9, 2000
Theres not that many I guess, its just normally me who gets stuck at them Roundabouts are a different matter, there everywhere
So when was you last in Swindon?
Hello Fellow Engineer
Phil Posted Nov 9, 2000
I worked there for a couple of years and then left for the bright lights in the big smoke and have been here since (3 years ago).
Hello Fellow Engineer
Phil Posted Nov 9, 2000
I guess I was in Swindon a couple of weeks back as the trains between London and Bristol stop there. Didn't get out and see any of the people I know there though or pick up the push bike...

Hey Sidney Kidney So what brought you down to Swindon?
I hope to get out of here soon enough everyone I know leaves as soon as they get the chance.

Well it was up and across really, as I live in Somerset.
I was in the roundabout capital of the world surveying two buildings.
I think the Swindons town planners must of been suffering from Altzimers, either that, or the only technical drawing instrument they could find when laying out your streets was to draw around the bottom of their coffee cups!!
Calne in Wiltshire is going the same way. Maybe it's twinned?
Hello Fellow Engineer
Leanne (ACE and Scout) Posted Nov 10, 2000
Yeah sounds about right
I work in the design office for a civil engineers company and I have to do the reports and crappy jobs like that Im not allowd to get my hands on designing and layouts yet unless I go to college but stuff that I dont want to be an engineer Im getting some experience and getting out of this place as soon as I can
Hello Fellow Engineer
Sidney Kidney, AKA Gruby Ben, friend of Dirty Den Posted Nov 10, 2000
Ahh! a girl with real vision I see
I have a mate who calls himself a civil engineer, but does nothing more than draw the layout for underground waste water managment! Drains!!!!
Not quite like how he imagined it would I know...
So, it you had the choice, what would you like to be doing?
Hello Fellow Engineer
Man of Legend Posted Nov 10, 2000
the life of an enigneer is not that bad. you get to sit around all day talking techy gobs***e, moaning how management and business people tend to cock everything up and getting severly underappreacated in the process.
oh yeah, and you look at dilbert and realise how sad you are when a cartoon is completely accurate about your life.
who'd be an engineer
Hello Fellow Engineer
Leanne (ACE and Scout) Posted Nov 13, 2000

Love Leanne
