    No, I'll never be like that. Promise.
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    And £1k for a new set of wheels for each new contest because you HAVE to have "the best bike in the world".

    Not got a job, but moving anyway .... perchance to find one.

    Set myself up in a millionaire's playground ... so looking forward to living the high life in the early months .... before ... well, who knows... but I will have lived the high life for a few months anyway before moving into accommodation more suited to my station in life :)

    I'll be in zone 1, if that means anything to you... I've no idea about the whole London thing ... yet.

    And, I have to worry about money, I only spend what I am earning at the time ... and 2009's not been that great to be honest.

    So cool. So you're going to be in London/SE too. Us southerners really must all meet up. Long-awaited chocolate cake. :)

    I'm not scary at all, BTW. Well, if you can time it to the right time of the month. :o

    Wageslave - fancy getting a train down?

    Girlies only, I think.

    Millionaire's playground sounds cool too. No idea what one of those is. I imagine my son playing on golden slides and things, with smiling millionaires looking fondly on. :D

    Actually, I picture it as pretty much like a trip I took to Hyde Park last summer, with my son and his godfather, who happens to be Wall Street banker, and the most loaded person I know. The playground wasn't made of gold, but close enough..

    Do tell more, PN. Sounds v exciting. Congratulations on the decision - I'm sure you'll find well-paid work MUCH easier to find round here.

    PS Zone 1 means you can walk to work. And nice parks. And museums.
