    Its hit a bit of a wall atm CMD. Theres been things like fruit crates of Ironing to get out of the way. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to the DIY soon.

    Ah you will get there in the end. It's good to take a break every now and again anyway!

    :j I Got The Job! :j


    My last day here is the 11th, they're going to pay me my new wage for the 2 weeks I'm away getting hitched and I start on the 28th in my new name! It's a bit of a pay rise, (£1500 extra) and I'll save a fortune in petrol. Oooooh I'm so excited! _party_

    That's fantastic! Congratulations I'm so pleased for you!

    Thanks for the congratulations everyone! It's all official now, they've sending over the paperwork for me to sign and I'm sending them my change of name forms so I can start in my married name. Everyone I work with knows and they all look slightly perplexed at the job description but I'm quite happy to become an IT nerd! :rotfl:

    Sounds very intriguing about the MS NIM! I wonder what's going to happen!
