decision time
do i or don't i?
been offered the job at Waldner, the one i went for the other week, now it's down to money, they've offered me the same as i'm on now, but i'm due a payrise if i stay...
also i would have to spend the first 5 weeks in germany, learning what the hell it is i'm supposed to be doing, which does sounds cool though, need to find out how i'm getting there where i'm staying and all that, because if i've got to pay for it there's no chance as i can't afford it
anyway, i'm leaning towards taking it, but i need to sort out these minor things first

flogging molly were as awesome as ever, but that's going to have to go down as the most expensive gig i've ever been to as i broke my specs while i was there, had to get some new ones on saturday, cost me £275, but that's including the insurance that i took out on them incase i break them again...cunning plan ;) the only disappointments for the evening were the lask of some very wicked songs...we're talking salty dog and delilah mainly, but there were others missing...and the woman who plays the fiddle wasn't there either, she's one something nasty to her hand...i wish her a speedy recovery, not that she'll ever read this i expect, but you never know, but everyone must see them though...that's the rules

in other news...nothing much has been happening, nothin much at all...shame really, i was after something exciting i could put in here...going to the dogs this weekend...might win some money, so i might have something exciting to put in here next time

well that's about it really

fuck it
this is the second time i've had to write this post, the first time it wouldn't save!!! (stupid aol)
anyway the boyz have just left after playing gt4 for a while, the original version of the blog had them playing nurbergring while i was writing, but obviously seeing as they've left i'm not playing anymore...
it was cool havingthem come round, we went to the witch to play some pool and hooked up with a few people from the wave and had a good time
anyway, this week has been fairly boring so i'm not going to say very much, i did say loads before inthe other version of this blog, but it got wiped and i can't remember what i said and i'm not in the mood to make it up again

mmm...greasy fast
ok, i've settled into the flat nicely, took me a little while to feel like i belonged here, but i do now. got myself an internet connection, 2mbps so i'm told, which is greasy fast and so i'm enjoying it, looking at some trailers for some new films, i'm not sold on any yet, but i'll let you know if there are any that i would recommend
feeling generally pretty good, although i'm having my problems wiht things, but then isn't everyone?
told the boss that i was becoming disillusioned with work and was no longer enjoying it as much as i had been, various reason, but basically i've told him that i'm looking at leaving, not just the centre, but the industry as a whole. it's going to be difficult to change the things that i do and i know that i'm going to find it hard to find something else to do seeing as i've spent the last 0 years working in the leisure industry. i guess if i were to move away i migh stay in the industry, but indoing that i'll be looking at moving a fairly long way away, ie out of the country...
on the job front i had an interview this morning at chunck's place of work, it seemed to go fairly well, but i'll have to wait for a week or more to find out just how well. if i get it i might have to go to germany to complete my training, which will be great, a working holiday type of thing, but i don't know any german as yet, and if i get the position i'll have to learn some, but i like a challenge...
well i think that's pretty much all i have to say and update with today so that's me down

Saturday 2 April 2005

hey hey peoples
hope everyone is enjoying the joys of spring, the weather's starting to look up, shame i'm stuck at work and can't be sat in a pub garden somewhere enjoying a tall frosty one, but such is life
anyway, the weeks been pretty good, bit on the quite side, but that can't be a bad thing. suffered from random insomnia this week, not been able to get to sleep before midnight, and usually awaye somewhere around half 6, with several jolts during the night...thursday was the worst when i couldn't get to sleep until gone 2 and woke up to the noisy kids down stairs screaming about something at 6 ish...little buggers!
other things that have happened...not much to be honest
went to the pub last night with the usual suspects, only trouble is that we are getting bored of the usual pub, hopefully next week we'll have a change of venue and be able to have a bevy somewhere else, with a nice pool table and plenty of people to watch...ifyernowotimean...
work has been ok tis week, a little stressful, a little boring, a little of everything really. had to sit in on a disciplinary, but that's P&C so i can't really talk about it, but it was funny, nothing happened and there was no nasty outcome either...shame i was looking forward to a public flogging ;)
got an interview in 10 days or so, need to hunt out my suit and a clean shirt ready for it, shouldn't be too hard. the interview though will be different, i have no idea what i'll be asked or anything, it's going to be a completely new experience for me, a job not in leisure!!!
yesterday was cool, it was the first day that i've been on my own and felt comfortable in the flat, also managed to have a decent dinner of pie, mash and peas, got some left over for today
sat and watched the games on tv once this week some surprisingly FIT women on it, none of the jodie dogruff marsh that they had last time, although lady hervey was mighty fine, mmmm kirsty gallacher, princess tamara...sweet! even mel from mel and sue fame was looking pretty good, but the royalty was by far the best on there
right...that's about it for now
