I am here for Friends

About Me

Kicking back as a bona fide dole scrounger after successfully managing to wangle a nice lil' redundancy package from my old company. Basically i threatened to start a grievance proceedure against them for breach of contract regarding the relocation of my job to a new depot further away. They didn't have a legal leg to stand on and i'll take that $6000 tax free thank you very much. Of course that does leave me in that hated position of now having to whore myself around to future employers... "Oh yes, i would love to work for your company because..."The other big change is that Nikki has secured a new job down in Southampton which means waving a tearful goodbye to our cute thatched country cottage in the New Year and relocating to the DIRTY BIG CITY. I guess 2008 is gonna be one hell of a new adventure....

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Someone from the future thrusting a copy of Michel Gondry's "Be Kind, Rewind" into my grubby eager hands. Oh, and possibly offering me some kind of crazy cool job would be nice.

Music:

did i mention that i've got tickets to see "The Boss" in June?

Movies:

Absolutely shat my pants in delight watching "Talladega Nights" the other day. I want kids called Walker and Texas Ranger as well dammit.Other good films recently include the Korean war movie "Tae Guk Gi (Brotherhood)" which floored me on more than one occasion and "Grow Your Own", a good ol' brit comedy in the same style as "Brassed Off" but this time dealing with the issues of immigration and allotments.

Books:

I've mainly been reading the frigging job vacancies section in the hope that a lovely new job will magically appear in front of me....
