As of April 4th, I start a new job in Reading. Yay!
I'll be moving down into a rented house alone, while Mrs.MM stays in B'ham to sell our house. I'll be back in B'ham on Tuesday evenings so I can go to Uni on Wednesday and then back again Friday night for the weekend.

Congrats again Mech!
First list on your to-do list - get a modem in Reading
mechmoggy
I'm only making it public now I've had the all clear from my medical. I'm such a cynic, I was expecting something to go horribly wrong. Well to be fair its to be expected, as this has been going on since October (when I went for my first interview!).
I'm gonna have to leave my computer in B'ham till we move, so I'll only be on Wednesdays and the weekends. But once the house is sold I'm gonna dump this piece of crap and get something new: something that can go .5 past light speed.

I'll be sure to be away that weekend
yerssot
oh djee! burly! that's kinda dirty to say on a PG-13 forum
mechmoggy
I don't think he meant from behind Yerss.
D'ya know the worst thing about moving? We've put loads of work into our house over the last couple of months to get the best price when we sell it, it looks like a bloody show-home! Why didn't we do this for ourselves when we were staying here?
yerssot
neither did I mech
oh! I know I know! pick me! *jumps up and down*
cause you're a stiffassed brit! ... right?
Corran
congratumulations Mech. I am learning to Read properly too.
mechmoggy
Do you have to be able to Read to live in Reading?
*goes to check job contract*
Fire

Tex
I dunno know where any of these British towns are so I'll just nod!
Fire
hehe Tex for the love of god you should atleast attempt to look smart
yerssot
yea tex! *nods too*
I feel a trap coming up, mech, don't trust them!
mechmoggy
Its not far from London Village Tex.
Fire
ooh the village
yerssot
everytime I read the title, I feel like Scar from The Lion King, screaming: "STAMPEDE!"
yerssot
"MECHY'S DOWN THERE!"
lil bitchiness
Mech thats wonderful!!
Congrats! hug
You'll be nearer me too...
well...nearer than before....
yerssot
*confers with others if that's a good thing*
lil bitchiness
Of course it is yerss...what are you talking about
Living near me is just....so.....great!
yerssot
we have reached an agreement:
forced by a power we will refer to as l. bitchiness... no, that's too easy to guess.... let's call her lil b., she forced us into believe it is great to leave near the poster currently known as lil bitchiness
furthermore we have deceided we would also like to live closer to her devine being
this ends this meeting of SA, suck-ups anonymous
lil bitchiness
Damn straight it is! As the leader and finder and organiser of suck-ups anonymos, you should know this better than anyone...and yeah...devine being indeed.
yerssot
I hoped that people would suck up to me since I'm the leader of the organisation
oh well, sucking up to you is much more fun
*starts worshipping you*
lil bitchiness
On your knees *takes out the whip* naughty worship me or else.
Storm
omg
*mental image*
lil bitchiness
No no no...dont imagine...for your own sake
yerssot
if you're planning to do what I'm hoping you'll do ... apperently you don't want people worshipping you
mechmoggy
I'm the centre of the universe, moving nearer to me is always good.
yerssot
you're a big black hole mech: you're sucking people down with you
mechmoggy
I'm where the big bang originated from.
Ask Mrs.MM
yerssot
the poor woman
you better be nice to her! *shakes fist*
lil bitchiness
Damn...I should have thought of that to say!
Fire
lol I'll keep it mind Mechy
yerssot
it's unavoidable, he's your destiny ... *starts to cry*
yerssot
*thwacks Fire*
Fire
*ducks*
yerssot
oh look, a remote controled dimwit
mechmoggy
"Thwack"?
Jeepers, I haven't heard that used since the original Batman TV show.
yerssot
and I started using it after seeing that show
yerssot
Don't be afraid to use your nails!
mechmoggy
Hee hee, the scout-master.
yerssot
to the batmobil!
Fire
*runsaway*
yerssot
it's alway easy to get rid of him
mechmoggy
Still haven't sold our house yet, although we did have five viewings before the for sale sign went up.
Mrs.MM prefers me to be out when people view, cus if they say anything derogatory, I'm likely to tell them bollocks.
Fire
hehe go mechy
yerssot
and you'll happily go to the local pub
cermiestar
lol go mech
mechmoggy
I just says it as it is.
yerssot
no, I think they want you to go away
lethargic rambler
UPDATE:
Me and Mrs.MM visited our rented cottage today to sign the rental contract and have another look around the area. We found the LA Fitness gym in Newbury (cus I'm already a member) and we also went to a village called Theale for a pint and a look round.
If all goes to plan, we'll have everything we own moved down there by Monday 3rd of May.
yerssot
12 days and counting, crossing my fingers
BarmyBrummie
Theres an LA fitness gym in newbury? I thought the only one was in Kings Heath
mechmoggy
There everywhere BB, my usual one is in Northfield, right around the corner from where I live.
mechmoggy
Update:
Mrs.MM has been and got me a load of shirts, ties and trousers for my new job.
We've contacted BT for a phone line but they can't connect us till May 10th, which means I'll be away for about a week.
yerssot
we'll hold a memorial for ya mech
Fitch

Enjoy the week without us
mechmoggy
This'll be my last time on now for a while.
