    I would also be interested in meeting up. I've lost a few friends recently (well they obviously weren't friends as we fell out about the fact I couldn't afford to go out) and I'd love to meet up with some like minded people.

  • I start my first two shifts in the pub this weekend. Friday and Sunday - hoping it will be a laugh! That means I still have the whole of Saturday and Monday to finish packing ready for my house move next week (fingers crossed it all goes through).

    Good luck The New Caz...just read this thread and it's so uplifting!

    I hope you guys all do meet up.....with little groups of MSE-ers meeting up maybe we can change the world! Or at least South Wales & London by the looks of things :D

    Hope your shifts go well.
