New Job Day 2

After my line managers boss dd not turn up yesterday I decided to don the three piece suit for a second day thinking you still only get one chance to make a first impression even though I knew the team and everyone else that worked in the office were probably wondering who the hell I […]

New Job day one

I do not change jobs very often so it was very familiarly unfamiliar to me to walk into an new office on my first day but it was really nice that the first face I saw was Jan who I have known since school but also worked with at Consulsoft before I went to the […]

Nervous pottering

Got home from the Lakes and had already put away me stuff, mowed the lawns and did the washing before Jamie and the kids got home from church, all because subconsciously I felt nervous about tomorrow. I threw some darts hitting a couple of ton eighties and drank a  couple of beers which relaxed me […]

It’s 9:30

Not one call

Out Out!

With Reagans mate coming over for a sleepover I asked Jamie if she wanted to go out for a drink allowing the girls to have the living room and we get a bit of time alone Out Out. She jumped at the chance but realised Lincoln had been left out of the plan, but when […]

Friday feelings

It’s always great to get to 5pm on a Friday after a work week, and it is made even better now that the clocks have changed and the sun has been out all day. Jamie has committed to getting more steps every day, so she has started coming with me and Billy each night on […]
