I’m now employed as a project manager working for a company in Guildford (that is shortly to move to Woking), but spending most of next week at the head office in Leeds - where I will take the opportunity to meet up with Daryl.

It all happened quite quickly. In response to a Jobserve entry, a recruitment agent contacted me on the Monday. I had a phone interview with the company on the Tuesday, followed by a face-to-face on the Wednesday. By 5pm I had been told I’d got the job. Even the CEO emailed me to say it was the quickest hiring they’d ever done! I suppose that should make me feel special.

Anyway, they specialise in agile PM which will be a ‘challenge’. Also, I may well end up working on site across the South East.

Well, that’s been a fun few weeks - though I didn’t always do nothing. One plan was to spend some quality time with Terry but the weather somewhat put paid to that. However, during occasionally bursts of sunlight, we visited Oxford and the Dorset coast (more specifically, the towns of Swanage, Studland and West Lulworth). Contrary to previous practice, I no longer put up photos on my site as Terry has a dedicated photo website that includes a soupçon of the pictures we take.

Now I have to start looking for a new job. I’ve signed up on LinkedIn, including one of my less scary photos. Anyone need a project manager?

BTW The webcam should be back proper now. Watch it and weep.
