  • Work

    So yeah, after a weekend recovering from my holiday, tomorrow I’m back at work again. It’s all a bit new actually – we have a new management chain, a new mission, and I have a new job description. Aside from that, it’s the same old show… I’m looking forward to it.

  • Solent Scurry

    I just got back from a great week sailing – the weekend round the Solent with a great bunch of people; some of which I already knew, and some I was meeting for the first time. Absolutely brilliant weekend – loads of fun people and a good sail into the bargain 😀

    After the weekend a few of us (Ben, Jules, Paul and myself) took one of the boats – “Trouble Maker” – and we spent the rest of the week sailing her to France (via Poole) and back. Again, a brilliant time.

    I just wish I could go sailing more often. On that theme, I’m trying to get a few friends together, and perhaps charter a boat at the end of September. It wouldn’t be the nicest time to go sailing, but it’s either then or not at all, as we’re fast approaching the end of the season 🙁

  • Life, the universe and everything

    OK… so a quick whistle-stop tour of what’s going on in my life at the moment.

    Jo and I decided to go our separate ways about a month ago – a shame, but that’s the way life is. Single again.
    The car’s lovely.
    I’m house-hunting with a vengeance, and am about to put in an offer on a lovely little place in Southampton.
    I got a payrise on Monday.

  • Life goes on

    Sadly sailing didn’t work out as Ben didn’t make it back into the country on time, but instead I went to Paul’s 25th party. We all dressed up as pirates and had a great time. There was Donkey Conga or something like that involved too 😀

    So I’m heading North for the bank holiday weekend on Friday, and it’s Jo’s birthday this weekend so it’s all very exciting. Because it’s the bank holiday on Monday, and she also has the day off, we get to spend the whole day together, a rare luxury, the importance of which cannot be overstated.

    Anyway… not much else to report. Work continues as normal with very little going on. Who would have thought life would be so unstimulating?
