Goodbye to Bench..

6 March 2010, 13:18

I have seen considerable change in market in last few weeks.
Finally after a very looooooooooog bench I vacated my place.

Thanks for all help from forum, it was a great relief to be here during
those testing times. Thanks again.

I know another friend of mine getting out of bench after a "short" 6 months period.

Things are definitely improveing...All the best for the rest...
Thanks..

Congrats - I assume that when you are saying goodbye to the bench, you start Monday. If not, keep on looking until you actually get there.
