Nowhere is the short answer! I will try to keep this post as concise as possible. Firstly I am unemployed, well, made redundant. The parent company I worked for collapsed and that took our local company with it. We tried all we could to save it, including making an attempt to take it over but a suitable deal could not be settled upon. Basically the MD has went awol, we could not make contact with him and therefore had no way to put together 2008 products we have had no option but to let it go! It's all very sad, depressing really, as 9 years of my life was spent there, with some amazing people, happy years and I fear I will not find something so suitable again.

Looking at the big picture I know this sort of thing happens every day and I am lucky that my responsibilities (financially) are minimal! I have not signed on, am trying to claim some sort of statutory redundancy and am currently living on my savings. Not an ideal situation, money is tight and I am trying to save money where I can. The best thing I have found is half price cigs bought on an auction site, you can't go wrong with £2.50 a packet, lol!

The future is obviously cloudy. I really don't know what I want to do. My position was Office Manager and sticking with Administration would be grand, Sales is another area I could go in to or even IT. Tho computers are my hobby and it would take all the fun out of it for me, clearly I would have to get some qualifications too. Next week I will start sorting all that out, so I will keep you posted.

With all this going on I just let life wash over me a little, it took a fair bit out of me and I just did not have to motivation to post, chat online, e mail people, etc. I have now had some time to get used to it and plan to get back to normality. My social life has been good, with formal dinners, pubs, clubs, poker (won local pub tourney twice in a row but lost last night), parties, etc! Costly business all this drinkin tho! I am still single and looking but do you know what, there isn't much talent in the pub and I fear my judgment is way off when I have had a skin full. One night stands are not my thing and I suppose trying to find something more in the dark recesses of the pub is madness but there you go!

Anyway I think I am done here for today. Fun posts will be resumed in future...
