Have a look at this site. HM Gov will help you find mislaid pensions.
https://www.gov.uk/find-lost-pension

I hope they turn up trumps for you.

Thanks Salmon smile


Sometimes Police Officers give more than just speeding tickets!

When I couldn't find work in the mid 70's I joined up again and stayed in. Part of the probs, and I know some will disagree with me, is that locally there used to be a great propensity to go on strike at the drop of a hat and firms moved away from the area or went bust. e.g. I was supposed to start on the docks when I left the RN but they were goosed by the time I came out in 69. Ended up out of work due to the 3 day week at Vauxhalls and took the redundancy to take work elsewhere, except that there wasn't any work as all the firms were in the same boat. It's funny the way people think the present pensioners had it dead easy but not by a long chalk. When I left the RAF I stayed in Lincolnshire and worked packing pork pies because it was a job. I've also done sprout picking, spud picking, field weeding, bakery nightshifts amongst other things. Nobody can really lecture me on the ethics of working and I am hacked off with those who expect loads of money for doing nowt.
