Both of us have been walking around with cheesy grins so far. I know it's early days and we're still sort of on holiday but it's all good. We've been up and down the coast exploring (we have use of a car with our rental and the landlord keeps giving us money to put fuel in. Who are we to argue? ) and got totally lost this afternoon trying to find Oxford street It didn't matter much though, there was no rush to be anywhere.

I have a job interview but the woman I need to arrange it with is off until Tuesday. And that's without even making much of an effort to start looking.

Good to hear you're enjoying it so far Wayne! Weathers been pretty good so far eh? We arrived around this time last year and had wall to wall sunshine for 6 weeks. Mrs Dagboy was probably foaming at the mouth by the end of it

Anyway, if I don't get chance to say it before Tuesday, good luck with the interview!

Interviews here a pretty informal, they like it if you turn up with a chilled 6 pack of VB, and a few ciggies to pass around.

Really? I'd never noticed Cheers anyway. It's not a fantastic job but it's a job. And more importantly, a foot on the ladder.
