KevinP, born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1956. Brought up in Alcester, Warwickshire, having attended Alcester Infants, St Faiths Junior, and Greville High schools, leaving in November 1971.
Back in the 1970's I was better known as GRIZWOLD, and worked in Stathams sweet shop in Alcester, then Halfords in Stratford-upon-Avon, before joining NAAFI in 1976 for seventeen years, working in numerous locations throughout the UK.
After NAAFI I settled in Cheltenham, living and working at various places, including the notorious Hesters Way estate for ten years.
Now living in Gloucester with my partner I worked for a number of years for a worldwide communications infrastructure company at their local Corporate Headquarters in Cheltenham heading a busy Accounts Payable section, dealing with a £45million purchase ledger.
I worked for www.bookdepository.com for several years at their site in Gloucester, but the company was purchased by Amazon in 2012, who relocated the Accounts Payable function to Bratislava and made us redundant. Unable to find suitable office work I returned to the Book Depository in the warehouse, packing some of the 70,000+ books each day until February 2016.
I now work at the National Star College, Cheltenham, www.nationalstar.org looking after the Purchase Ledger section.
Drop me a line, I would love to hear from anyone who remembers me!
