Ho hum

Will be going to HK on June 11 - 28. Anyone else gonna be going during this time? Its been ooh....5 maybe 6 years since I last went so am looking forward to making my way back. I am certain it will be so hot I won't be able to breathe but playing football in that weather should help my shed a few pounds. Of course it is also one of my best friend's wedding which should make things pretty exciting.

Oh and I managed to get involved in a pile up a few days back. OK, well 3 cars still count as a pile up i think. Driving on the right hand lane when suddently a lady cuts me off in front to pull into a car park on my right! So I am driving and there is a car blocking my lane horizontally out of nowhere! Being the great driver I am, I  managed to pull off an amazing emergency stop and didn't hit her. However, the white van driver behind had other ideas. He went straight into the back of me and shunted me into the car in front.





Thankfully nobody was hurt but the other drivers better admit liability cos the excess and the loss of my no claims bonus is seriously going to hurt my bank account. At least there were 2 witnesses there who were willing to ive me their contacts.

Other than that, will be starting a new job next Monday which raises my excitement level by about....er.....nothing! Travel will be much more annoying but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Xanga eh? Who would be bothered to update this regularly and keep the world informed about love life/work life/stress/toilet behaviour/whatever?? Apparently a lot of people are. I wish I hadn't started this up now as I get constant nagging from people to update this (you know you guys are!!!) and when I actually bother I don't know what to write. Hence this crap.

I've been on a .NET training course this week fully paid for by my company. I was planning to take this course in order to help me find a new and better job which would pay me too much £££ to spend. BUT.....I've decided that I'm not cut out for programming. Not that I can't do it but its just..... well boring. I will never be as good as the the best therefore never get paid loads. Therefore I will always remain an average boring programmer for life. No thanks.

Is it really this hard to get your own business? I have always wanted to quit working for Mr "I have a bigger office than you and can sack you in a second" and to do my own business. But I can't see the end of tunnel and this is depressing. There always seems to be ideas and possible business floating around but nothing ever gets off the ground.

I got a couple of new potential ideas now and am really hoping these will work. Fingers crossed. Show me the money!

Well, its been quite a while since I last updated this Xanga thingy. But after some pressure from a certain person I have decided to say a few random words....

Well its nearly Christmas now and I don't really know what to make of it. Traffic's getting worse, shopping is more of a hassle, everyone rushing around. There seems to be loads of pressure on everyone sending out cards, buying presents while time is ticking away. Is this meant to be the true spirit of Christmas? But I guess if there weren't these occasions we would forever be thinking of making time for our friends/family instead of actually doing it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone! Make sure you grasp the point of it and use it to meet friends/family and not see it as a hassle!

Days are flying by....Always seem busy doing something, be it work or pleasure. Work wise, I had never guessed running a Limited Company involved so much official paper work to the government. I am always receiving these reminder letters and having to do the job of a qualified accountant even though I know next to nothing about it all.

I have been hanging around a lot of older people recently and a lot of them are married, have kids or have settled down. Its a good thing cos its a really nice atmosphere and everyone is really caring and nice. The life is a lot less "mad" or crazy than my University days but the strange thing is that I am enjoying it. I can't believe I am turning into an old biscuit so early. I call on young people to save me!!!

I'm having a great time with my girl and can't believe its almost a month. If you click you just click and I guess there's been a lot of clicking recently

Been a while since I updated this thing. First off, can some1 please write sth on my flooble chatterbox so that won't expire. I dun wanna speak to myself anymore!!! boohoo

What a busy 2 weeks. Time has flown by so fast and I have enjoyed it so much. So what have I been up to? I've been going to work most days, keeping fit playing loadsa football, helping out on a Chinese night and spending time with my girl. Even though we have been together only for a short period of time it already feels like we have known each other forever. I have high hopes for this one!!

Now that ppl are coming back to Warwick remember to find me whenever you come to Brum!! Will be nice to see you guys again.
