    Chicken now wont be cooked until 9, so I've just had my veg and I'll eat the meat later. I'm remembering why I had a problem with sister cooking for me last time she lived over here...

    There's a project at the University of Leeds about rejeneration areas, it's mainly concentrating on the one I live in but they might be able to suggest places you can work, areas that are looking for your skills? I can give you the details if you like.

    Thanks Ames,

    I am looking at any links / potential routes in and I've set myself an area between Newcastle and Leeds. I've built up a list of contacts which I will start approaching next week.
