Only a few weeks since I finished work and already I feel a good deal happier. Just said goodbye to my Mum, then my Dad. Tomorrow I say goodbye to Britain for a couple of years and Worcester, the nearest … Continue reading
That was a really good weekend, then. And a long one. I’m not entirely physically wrecked too, which meant I was able to get back to Worcester without any physical pain. A long sleep is in order now, though. I … Continue reading
So, I got down to London yesterday on the unbelievably expensive train, sitting next to a very attractive Indian girl, listening to all the old 7″ singles I ripped to MP3. That didn’t take long, so I had free time … Continue reading

The last ever entry about Lloyds TSB
Ten things I will not miss; 1. Having 25 minutes and 12 seconds break a day. 2. Being reprimanded for going over this time yet getting no compensation for having to stay behind for 15 minutes. 3. Getting stuck with … Continue reading
My last week in work was the best week since the first one, in terms of entertainment at least, and I didn’t even have to change anyone’s name to “smug twat” and send them a new card to make it … Continue reading
