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! smile

First list on your to-do list - get a modem in Reading yes

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. cool

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. big grin
