That's interesting, because I'm also 02xxxxx although I joined in 1991.
It confirms me in my belief that the low figure FF numbers are not a reliable guide to date of joining. I started with a 5-digit number (the xxxxx in the current number) and 02 just got stuck on the front when all the various QF and TN schemes were amalgamated into one, IIRC.
