Can't wait !!! I'm still on hols in Poland . -18 degrees !!!

Yep same here :)

Maybe I'm reading it wrong but it saysyou will be invited to join either the company shared cost section of the railways pension scheme or the IWDC ( industry wide defined contribution scheme ) , the company's auto enrolment pension scheme ? Any advice would be appreciated

Got contract this morning . Sent back already !! ;) Can anyone tell me the difference between the 2 pensions ? Or which is the better ? I'm coming up from sunny Southend should anyone want a lift ? Def be good to put faces to names

Any guys coming up from down south ?
