After three and a half months of interviews, trial shifts, CV drops, letters and phone calls including the word 'impressed' followed by 'unfortunately' and so forth, mingled with all the heartache and fall-out of my life in 2010, I've got a sodding job.

It's as barman / duty manager at a local hotel, so it's not like WOAH PROPER JOB but it's 30+ hours a week and seems like a really nice place with nice people and I'VE GOT A JOB.

It's all evening shifts though, so you can probably consider me semi-retired from DiS / Tinychat / HAXBALL. I'll probably just be on the afternoon and an hour after work when I finish not-late. Yeah.
