Well here I am in that same cafe in Blackpool. The frustration of not getting details of the new job was really getting to me so by Wednesday I gave them a call. The new contract had been sent and was in the post and my start date is 10th July. Since finding that out I have been busy getting things organised; handing in my notice (last day 30th June), sorting out 2 leaving do's (a works do and a gay scene do, although I am dragging my work mate to the gay scene anyway),and I drove down here to blackpool yesterday after work to look for somewhere to live. I have just put a deposit down on for a really nice shared house in Leyton, Blackpool. I even have a view of the tower from my bedroom window.
Have been on such a high since finding out about the job that I must be hell to live with and work with at the moment, even more than usual, although I did get quite emotional when I read the comment left by Davyjimjam on my myspace page. I think that other than my landlady/friend/Guiding light (Oscar) I will miss my work collegues the most especially as I feel that there are so many really good friendships that are blossoming.
By the way while I am writting this, the rest of the world are watching the 1st england world cup match, I have just overheard that england are winning 1-0 Beckhan scored, no idea who against. The whole country appears to have gone a bit mad with the whole thing. At what point does patiotism turm to jingoism? (see i do know big words, even if i cant spell them). I am even doing my bit, I have been walking round in the baking heat all day so tomorrow my entire body will be "eng-ger-land" red, with white bits.
Thats it for now
OK, love you, Bye bye
PS I have done my best to think of a witty football related pun for this blog, but failed. sorry. If i think of one i'll update , or if there is anyone who reads this and can think of one, please let me know
