It's been a while

I've just done over 4 weeks at work in my new role.  And although things have been a bit busy this week I think i'll do fine here.  My initial contract is for 6 months which is standard and you never know I may get an extension.  Who knows...

I'm almost sorted with my company accounts etc., I think it's just my VAT certificate left to arrive then i'm good to go.

Start saving

Only six months until the big 40. I accept lots of presents or hard cash.

First day

Well, that was interesting. My first day in my new contracting career went well. I was shown various things that i'll be expected to work on and it's mostly things I've done before.

Fairly confident that I'll be able to do a good job there.

Almost there on the business side of things, just agreeing terms with an accountant to go.

More blogging

Now that I'm due to start working next week I might try and make some more regular blog posts.

I also have a new my muse to inspire me.

Introducing Josephine (Josie) our new family member.

Nearly a Year off

Looks like I'm back working next week! I've got a contracting role at a very good managing agency back in the city.

It's taken a while, a while longer than I would have liked but thankfully I've not run out of money so all is good.

I'm excited about getting back to work but will miss Flo, more or less my only human contact during the week.

No WiFi and no Internet

Just spent the past three nights in a lovely old house over near Diss for Kris' 40th birthday celebrations.

It was a nice break, but glad to be home.

Dead rat!

We've had a bit of a rat problem since we've come back from Chicago, and until now not been able to get rid of them.  Today I smelt a strange smell from the cupboard under the stairs so I took a look.  Yuk!

There was a dead rat half stuck in one of my beer making kits.  All cleaned up now and hopefully it will be the last of them.

New Christmas present from a

Long time no post

It's been a long time since my last post, so here's a quick one with a photo of Flo in her new kitchen. It's from IKEA but April jazzed it up with a fresh lick of paint and some marble effect sticky back plastic.

We have a walker

Flo's been taking a few steps this past week.  Still prefers a bum shuffle but it's progress.
