    I fear Simon has employment issues, Andrew Mount (Mounty) has just posted this on Facebook

    "My good friend Simon Nott has been, to use his own words, 'cast asunder', in disgraceful circumstances. I've had my fair share of redundancies and work setbacks over the years and they were always followed by a proper leaving do. Simon has been denied this by the corporate straight-out-of-nappies-bastards placed in charge of his future, so I suggest we get together for a proper commiseration/celebration in the beer future. Details to be confirmed but please declare interest here."
