The City of Calgary are looking for bus drivers at that Expo thing in Leeds and London - I don't know if there is a subtle difference between a bus driver and coach driver, but it could be a lead for you:

I would advice that you go to the expo.

Please save your head because like mentioned before you will need it.

The whole process isn't an easy ride, its a roller coater of a ride. Just when you have one issue sorted another one comes running up close behind to cause another issue. Believe me its true

Stick with it. If it was easy everyone would do it.

You're a man? From NI? Not a chance - you must be a blow in
You have pretty much summed up how we all feel, stuck here till a mythical job 'happens'. But don't despair just yet, where there's a will there's a way. Or as my Dad would say - "If you don't have to work for it, it's not worth having."

From a fellow headbanger.

PS. If you get bored of all that housework my front garden badly needs cut
