Re: Beagles Meet - Peterborough - Sat 31st May- EVERYONE WELCOME

Thanks for all the comments. It's not as bad news as it might sound. Work has been an increasingly unhappy place to be in a number of ways, both from the point of view of the company (business not doing at all well) and me (not getting much recognition from boss, getting passed over for promotion, all that sort of thing). So I was ready for a change, but lacked the impetus to walk out.

The redundancy terms are good, and another job is looking good (but still waiting for official confirmation). If the "other job" works out, it will be >100 miles from here (and the opposite side of London), hence the need to sell.

I'm not actively looking for anything else around here, either, because my present work are insisting on me staying on for 5 months, so there's not a huge rush to find another position. There's not a lot of work on offer, near here (or anywhere else in the country actually :@), in my area of experience either, so the one job I think I am likely to get is a tremendous thing to have.

And I think from a family point of view that it wouldn't be bad to move house now. My daughter is 2.5 years old so she can cope well with it. She's very sociable and she'll make new friends quickly enough. Better to move now, well before she starts school.

Update to my rather off-topic post.

This morning I was offered the other job a long way from here; tonight I have accepted it and I'll start in November.

On with selling the house - after we get back from holiday - and sorting things out.

I had a fab night and found out some interesting connections that I have with other users.

Froggy and Tom, sorry if I used you both as props to keep me upright:noidea:

I couldnt sleep, I am going to blame the hotel (nothing to do with vodka redbulls)


So I arrived at my nan's at 8 am for a surprise breakfast, I may still have been drunk as the sore head didnt kick in till lunch time lol

Thanks to everyone who organised it I had a fab time :kiss:

Thanks to all that managed to make it down to Peterborough.

It was good to meet up with new faces as well as those whom I'd already met previously.

I'm sure we may have put a couple of people off coming to another meet though..lol

Anyway a brief recap of the nights events

Most people landed in wetherspoons early evening, some earlier than others.
We all donned our Beagles T Shirts, which gave everyone in the pub something to read while you were stood at bar.
Some of us ate in Wetherspoons, while some went to a restaurant for a meal.
Then we all met up again about half in wethers.
Not sure what time we left there but we all moved on to the club.
Some went straight into the club, some went into a sports bar next door.
After an hour or so in the club we decided we would have a party in the hotel room.
Cels room was first choice, but due to the lack of a sofa, Tom said that his room had a sofa so we all went there (which i'm sure he regretted mentioning, I kept my gob shut, no trashing my room)
If from memory the people there were, Me, Nattie, Cel, Tom, Exc, Tempty, PJ, BTW, BTW's mate (sorry forgot her name, was it Sally?), Mocha, Saphire & MTM
If i have forgot anyone ..oops sorry

Anyway I will post some more later

Well I've finally got on line again at work, computer at home having a turn.

Had a great time on Saturday, nice to finally put names to faces.

Unfortunately had to leave early (as in 1am) and go home due to a domestic crisis. Bloody kids! they make Family at War look positively Peace Corps!. All sorted now, why couldn't they have started WW3 on a different night????

Anyway, had a brill time xx
