Back in the 1970s I was working for a Bank and was transferred from Branksome to Winchester. At that time all removal expenses were paid and your petrol for travelling. My daily car was an Escort MK1 TwinCam and it was being sorted after an accident on a rallye. The garage lent me a Jaguar MK10 and of course the Bank covered the fuel. I recall collecting, in no time, enough Green Shield stamps to get the complete Margaret Patton cookery collection and the folder in which to keep them. Later when I moved from Winchester to Salisbury I was running an Aston Martin DB5 and the Bank covered those expenses too. Happy days.

once on my 3rd broken leg (and I mean leg). the company gave me the use of an automatic geared car, so that I could get to the office to stomp around in my plaster cast and crutch. I should have put in for a pay rise if I was that indispensable. I do remember it was an interesting project requiring special equipment.
