It's been a while

Sorry about that everyone, I've been a bit busy of late and so haven't had a chance to sit down and post.

Well, most of you are aware that we are looking to relocate back to the Birmingham area. We were looking at Lichfield, but it's a bit bloody pricey. The houses carry about a 25% premium over Chelmsford. Lichfield is however quite good for us as the Trent Valley - Euston run is only 1 hr 20 mins. This means that I can stay working at Pioneer until after I have finished the move and then take my time finding "the right job" in WMidds. Hopefully being back near our parents will be good for George, them and us. At least we won't be short of babysitters!

Sarah has started working part-time at M&S. She starts at some crazy hour in the morning and so gets up at 5.30am, fortunately she is quite quiet. She was going mad looking at the same four walls every day, so getting out and working is really good for her. The cash will come in handy as well with Xmas just around the corner.

Speaking of Xmas, George is getting very excited about it all. We went and bought a tree today, and we let him pick out some decorations for it. We haven't put it up yet (it's too early). However, we also bought one of those three foot, fibre optic trees and we have put it up in his room. He gets so excited when it is turned on, it's great.

Barney is getting very big now, he must be 5-6 stone, I can barely carry him.

Other than that it's all work work work, as usual. I went on a Project Management course last week. That was pretty good but very hard work. The course was residential, and we were starting at 8.30am and running through 'til gone 6.00pm and then we were expected to read in the evenings. It's hard to be learning for that many hours a day.

Anyway, it's getting late, and it's work tomorrow so I am going to sign off now. I promise not to leave it too long before I post again.
