Well folks it looks like it's time for me to say bye to the 'temp for a while. I've been waiting to hear about a job for a few weeks and I got the call this morning that I start on the 16th. Normally this wouldn't mean saying bye but it's a live in job in a holiday camp which means I won't have net access.

I'm probably going to start clucking from withdrawel symptoms!
I'll be leaving my PC at my parents place but I only get one day off a week (bastard slave drivers! heh) so I don't know how often I'll be back home, it's like a 50 miles trip each way.

The job lasts from March until September so I'll be back then, unfortunately for everyone here you can't get rid of me that easily!

I'll still be active from now til next Friday but I move in to the accomodation on the 14th. Heh, if anyone's planning a holiday in a holiday camp then I'm working in Hafan y Mon, Pwllheli. Book there and keep me company! And everyone show me some sympathy, I get my own room but I'll be sharing the chalet with 3 other lads. What's the bet they turn out to be complete chavs!

No chance of a 3g dongle? They are on pay as you go for quite decent rates and speeds these days, not enough to go downloading but for general usage they are fine.

Re: visiting, afraid I do not love you enough to subject myself to a holiday park (much less travel across the entire country to do it) and I would be more likely to find myself in Holyhead or Mount Snowdon than the other side. Should I find myself there a round or two on me I guess.

Also remember when you decide to murder someone (and in a holiday camp going by our past conversations you will at least contemplate it) use a plastic sheet on the floor.

Cheers Costy mate! Stay safe and good luck with what you're doing. Hopefully I'll see your game on Live when I get back!

I was thinking about that. Won't have the cash til I get my first paycheque but it's something I'm definitely going to look into.

I'm going to look into that mate. I was thinking of one of those phones with a browser but a lappy with a dongle would be alot better. I won't have the cash until my first paycheque but I'll probably be able to pick up a cheap laptop and stuff then. Do you know roughly how much a phone setup would cost?

I have no doubts I'll want to kill someone! Luckily there's a river close by, and you know, accidents always happen by rivers don't they!

Cheers p1ngy mate! I'm going to spend the next 6 months chasing drunk female tourists looking to have a good time so I'll be in my element! lol Of course there's that pesky job shit in between but I can put up with that! Plus where else am I gonna find another place that costs 100 quid a week for rent, food and electric. It's a steal.

Cheers RD mate! I've been looking at prices of the stuff tonight and I should be able to afford one with my first pay, so hopefully I won't be away as long as I thought.

Oh, and if you do kill somebody, you need to do it in some sort of ritualistic fashion just for kicks.
