Update

September 29th, 2008

First off, sorry about the lack of posts.

Secondly, sorry for the usual hollow apology – I usually copy and paste that line from a file on my desktop called blog_apologies.txt as it’s so frequently used on here.

What’s happened between now and the last proper post? Our kitchen is almost finished apart from some bits and pieces that I’ve not had time to sort out. Once that’s done I’m going to post some before and after pictures (everyone loves a before and after) to look back on fondly.

I quit my job a couple of weeks ago. Yeah! The plan is to work on some paid projects for a couple of months and use the time off to find another job that’s a bit more fulfilling – it’s ok being a code monkey, but I’ve been doing this stuff for the the past 6 years or something now so a change in direction (obviously in the same field – I’m not going to go and retrain as a plasterer) will be good for me. Besides, getting the fuck out of an office will be GREAT for me for a while so I don’t have to work alongside another Winter’s victims of bad diets. Sniff. Sniff. Sniff. Arrggh.
