And so the eons pass, and a post is formed and floated into the ether.....or some such nonsense.
This post is mostly to say thankyou to all who wished me a happy birthday and to those who came to my birthday. The turnout was amazing, i didn't expect anywhere near that many people! I think everyone had a good time and there didn't seem to be any major calamities so its all good! Great to see everyone, need to get myself some proper transport so i can get myself out to see people more easily, but we shall see where the tide takes me.
Tacking on a quick update, still in same flat til end of may now (6 month extension), still working at same place, permanent as of december, possible promotion opportunities coming up, still...well...the same in everyway really! How boring of me! Ah well, maybe soon i'll have a useful update.... |

An update of updatiness, actually quite an important one.
This is because things have been very rushed and internet isn't very readily available.
So, last wednesday at yates suggestion I returned to the essexlands to nose at a few flats with him, to see what was going on. As he had said he'd seen a really good one (take into account the fact we'd only been looking a week so I hadn't been expecting anything much, only really just decided to move to essex). So, once i'd seen it we pretty much decided to take it, perks include:
- 2 large bedrooms, large living room.
- Being totally redecorated.
- Estate agent that is fine with me being unemployed initially.
- Nice and close to a train station and town centre.
- Very close to takeaways of all descriptions (chinese, indian, fish/chips, italian, pizza hut, kebab, kfc, noodles, bagels, subway, and more, multiple of sum. By close i mean all within a 5 minute walk. (This one might be a con).
- Cheap price for the area.
So yeah, looks like we could well have keys in a week. Only real con is its on a main road, but its double glazed so thats no big deal.
Next i decided on thursday to sign up in job agency's. Went into town and strolled into one called Reed. Spoke to a woman and within 2 minutes was sent to someone else. She then told me if the position is still going she can prolly get me an interview early next week, and i stand a good chance of getting the job. Is helpdesking business customers for an ISP, gonna be a bit boring I expect, but be a nice chance to learn and pay is good enough!
So, yeah. Its been rushed and all, and I will be back in canterbury (probably this weekend getting stuff, then hopefully keynestock weekend, then definitly when all essex friends are off to rock am ring so i'm not all alone here). So we better organise things!
OH! Another thing. The flat is unfurnished, we've scavenged excellently so far, getting most things. We are only missing one thing really, a fridge/freezer. If anyone has one (preferably essex based) which they are trying to get rid of either free or for a fee, please tell me. Will discuss with Mr Yates and hopefully take it off your hands :). Also we are after a 2nd sofa (sofa bed we are thinking of). Same again, anyone getting rid of one, gimme a shout, we'll try and sort something out!
Final thing, anyone know if its possible to get a cable company to do a 6 month contract? we'll prolly be in the house 12 but i dont wanna get stuck in a 12 monther if possible. Virgin media's sight only says 12 month :(.
Thats all for now folks! |

| Phone Problems |
[Aug. 13th, 2006|10:53 pm] |
This update is just to say I'm having phone problems. I cant send text messages. I can still make/receive calls and receive texts though. The actual problem the phone says is "Memory full" however it isnt, i have checked. A hard reset fixed it for about a day but it came straight back. This post is to say two other things:
1) Any ideas for fixing it, please tell me :)
2) If you have a spare o2 capable phone i could borrow til i get this sorted i'd be much obliged :).
Stupid phones! |

Ahh, the update.
Going back to before my post about my house having internet slightly, I have settled into my new house. The Wendy also seems mostly settled and now we just await the coming of the becky to complete the fearsome three that are the residents of 5ssr.
For those who don't know, I've finished the cleaning job (if i even said I was doing it on here) and have moved over to working as a "Computing Assistant" in the Computing building for summer as well as applying for a slightly more long term job which I'll hopefully hear back about soon.
I've been quite enjoying working full time, it might sound silly but i've enjoyed doing work (even in the heat!) and then coming in and having things to do and a lot less time doing nothing. Now I just need to enhance things a bit, been getting more time doing very little, I'm looking into getting a bit more exercise into my life since i enjoy it and have the time for it. The choices are really:
- Getting a bike and cycling - I must say I seem to have lost the appetite a bit for this, a bike is generally pretty uneeded in canterbury given its size.
- Joining Kingsmeade gym - Not a fan of swimming so would just be the gym bit, never done this before so anyone who's been to kingsmeade, opinions? and prices if you know them :).
The Essex lot, I know i've missed a coupla planned visits back (although I was ill for one in my defence), I'm intending to come back the weekend of the 5th/6th of August, assuming people are going to be around, up for something saturday daytime/evening and such, please let me know :).
Oh, and graduation was good fun :). Dressing up all smart (yes its true, me smart!) and wandering around feeling all important. Was an excellent few days as a whole, my own ceremony as well as the others I visited to see people I knew, although a little sad knowing some of the people I may not see again. Dave/Mum, can you send me the pics you people took? :) |
