Wee! Well, so I’m still shite at updating this, but now I really do have news.
So what’s happened? Well, I came off nights and things were great. I spent 5 days telling Foxxy what I knew about the systems he needed to take over before I headed off to Scotland. Scotland was great, I loved it, but I got ill, so we never had a chance to do Ben Nevis.
Came back from Scotland to find two requests for interviews waiting for me. One in West London, and another in Cardiff. The one in West London looked great, very interesting and they work a lot along the M4 corridor so looked interesting. The one in Cardiff I was not expecting much of as the job spec didn’t grab me. However, I spent 2 and a half hours in the interview and got along great with them. The job was better than it looked and I loved the company. They offered me the job that afternoon, so I took it. I leave Mistral on May 6th. Wooooo! I’m moving back home for a month or two until I get a place sorted – I’m buying now, so let’s see how that goes. 🙂
That was Easter weekend and I spent the weekend at home with Sis and hubby, kids and mother and co, and the dog. Great fun and despite there being two classic callout-weather days, we had none. I saw Nath on the Monday, took him and Bron out for lunch and spent some time together which was great. We had some fun and just messed around like we used to which was nice. It’s kind of settled me a bit actually, knowing that we can still be silly around each other. I was actually getting quite angry with Gav, to the point where I didn’t want to be in the same room as him because I thought I might loose it. Now I’ve settled a bit, and while I still have a lot of anger, my attitude to him has now turned to apathy. Taking the high road, or CBA? Fuck knows.
Anyway, this last weekend was fun. Went out to G.A.Y. with Jo who’s a sweetie although he has his own baggage (mainly a guy called Dave). I just want to wrap him in my arms and cuddle him, he’s just so sweet. I really had fun in GAY which is the second time I’ve been in the last year. It’s great fun and much less of a meat market than I saw last time I was there which was back in ’97.
On a bit of a downer, Ste and boy have split up. Boy seems to have large quantities of baggage which are causing some serious issues. Another guy I just want to hug and tell him everything’s going to be ok.
What else? Oh, I’ve been officially diagnosed with Asthma. Thank you London, and thanks Mistral too. I’m tracking my Peak Flow (fnarr!) and I keep my inhaler with me, so we’ll see how it goes for now. The car got fixed, and I got my new spots and stuff fitted, though there was drama over the seat. I finally had to fork out to get it fixed properly, and it cost about £800 in total. Poo.
Anyway, that’s enough of an update for now. I’m orf to bed. Oh, I believe congrats is in order for James who’s now officially a plod. Can I just say, you look so sexy in your uniform. Mmmmmm. *grin*
