Default Re: Woodworm damaged cabinets

This thread reminds me of the retirement of a senior engineer back in the Old GEC Trafford Park days. The director asked the retiree at his presentation if he would miss the company after his 50 years service. He responded by saying no (abruptly if I recall correctly).
He would in fact miss all of the knowledge base that was available. In this he was referring to problems with central heating or how to grow tomatoes and so forth. The emphasis being that there would always be someone who knew what the solution was.
