I'm back in my old job.  I think they realised that there is still some more work to get finished and it's easier to do so when someone is sat there ready to tackle it.This is good news because it would have been easy to completly run out of cash by being out of work for a while, on the other hand it would have been good to start a brand new contract.  Even more good news is that there is a new

At the moment I am "between jobs"; my last Contract has ended and I've not yet got a new one.  Now, I'm hoping that I don't have to spend too long out of work but I'm enjoying having a break!I've taken the dog on a few big walks, it's great not having a schedule or a constantly ringing phone.Hopefully I'll pick up more work in the next couple of weeks.

Blimey, it's proper Autumn out there already.I can honestly say I haven't been doing much recently. Work obviously takes up most of my time, and being a Contractor means that I'm not all that keen on taking days off. Weekends are good, I don't work and nor does Clare now, we probably need to make more of an effort to get out and "do stuff" rather than staying home and relaxing though.So I'm

When you have a dog and take it on regular walks in your neighbourhood you tend to meet the same dog owners time and again. I'm convinced that one woman (Beagle and Cocker Spaniel) is Hazel O'Connor of early Eighties pop fame, I am going to have to ask her.

Most of my blogging action is happening over here at the moment.

I'll tell you what is annoying me at the moment; people who say "A N Other" instead of "Another".Now, I can sort of understand it (but I still don't like it) when they are talking about persons unknown, like "This paperwork needs to be signed by A N Other before it gets to me". Someone here just said "The toner cartridge has run out, we need to order A N Other".

Life with a puppy is shaping up to be fun, but also quite hard work.I think it will be a but easier when she can go outside for walks, a couple more weeks left until she is properly vaccinated. Until then, it's a matter of trying to keep her amused and working on instilling some good manners (weeing on the carpet and biting people are both generally unacceptable whoever you are).Pictures will

We decided a couple of years back that we would like to get a Dog, we even settled on the specific breed we would like, but the time wasn't right. It is now.So, we'll be picking up our puppy (from Dover!) this weekend. She's quite cute, don't you think? We've decided to call her "Miia" (anything other than a Finnish name wouldn't be right!) I'm looking forward to long walks in the country and

Busy.At the moment I'm getting into Dylan in quite a big way. I think my favourite song so far is Hurricane, this could well be because I'm spending some of my bus journeys reading Innocent Man; good non-fiction by John Grisham!In other news; very busy, taking time off means losing cash these days. I'm also "saving up" for a great big Canadian Canoe, paddling away to spend nights under the stars

I know I'm probably the last person on the planet to do it, but I've finally bought something off of ebay!In my case it is a mid 90's Saab 9000, and I'm really happy with it.Over the last few years I have had jobs which came with company cars, including a few quite flash ones. Now I don't get any perks like that and I've bought a car for less than £250, and I'm much more satisfied!The car has a

First day of the new job went fine, I've got a stinking cold though which doesn't help.Now that I don't have a company car (or any road-worthy car at all) I'm relying on Public Transport for the first time in over 15 years. There is a good bus service between Bicester and MK and I'm using it from now on.This morning I totally buggered it up though. I knew the bus left town at 7.35, so I set out

It's safe to say that the new job really hasn't worked out.It's been an odd job really; lots of potential there but it's been a real struggle to get any information from them, that's a bad thing if you are trying to plan stuff.On Monday morning I shall tell them that I'm going to leave, I won't be working my notice period either, they will only get a week...At the end of the month I will become a

We went to the first day of the PC World sale on Boxing Day, we were even there shortly after 7am which is something of a miracle to be honest. We did OK, we walked away with a new laptop and a wireless router for just a little over £400.It's good to be able to access the internet at home again and wifi is great, I should have sorted that out ages ago. The best thing is that the laptop belongs

Well, that was quite a period of sustained silence, wasn't it?Things have been a little hectic since I left my job and started a new one, I also had to give my laptop back to my old employer (I did try to hang on to it!) and it was the only working machine we had in the house. This is why you are seeing no updates on here.I'll wait for the sales and then buy a new laptop for home, Tesco is

Well, Georgia is seven today (it's flown by!) and we have just returned from hosting a party at the local indoor play centre thing for about 25 of her friends (and her, obviously).A good time seemed to be had by all, and we left about 180 notes lighter... not too bad really!

I have a bit of a dilemma at the moment.I have worked for the same employer for almost 11 years now, although in that time I have worked in a few different divisions and departments and have had different roles in each.I've now been approached by a different company and they appear to be offering slightly more cash to do (what I think is) an easier job. I must admit that I'm tempted because I

I was driving through Croydon yesterday morning and, while I was stopped at some traffic-lights, a dog did a big poo on the pavement next to me.The owner whipped out a plastic bag, scooped up the poo and then tied the bag to the dogs collar.Wouldn't fancy that myself TBH.

I've been looking at a Mac Mini, it's not going to happen though because available funds for "non core purchases" are currently not available.I would like to have some sort of computer at home which would run a browser, how do you go about that without spending? I did have an old (ish) PC in the garage, but that appears to have been taken when a neighbour cleared out the stuff they were storing

I went out for a ride on my bike this morning with no particular destination in mind. I must have got a little carried away because I ended up cycling from Bicester, through Oxford and on to Abingdon. I'm not sure how far I peddled but I think it must have been about 25 miles or so, not bad going for a fat bloke!I'm hoping to add a new bike to my collection as soon as my employer sorts out this

I'm knackered.This is the week where I booked annual leave from the proper job to spend the week driving trucks, and therefore getting paid twice.I've been starting work at 2am each morning and driving to various places in London (Wembley, Arsenal... loads of restaurants and hotels). So far I have done around 60 hours in 5 days, one more day to go!It's gone 7pm, so it's time for bed.

I'm trying to get into the habit of reading a bit more. It's actually quite easy because there is nothing left on telly that I want to watch and the frequency and length of advert breaks on Sky just makes me angry.I've got a bit of a thing for Kathy Reichs books, so I've just finished Monday Mourning which was really good. What I didn't realise until recently is that her books (or at least the

I've recently moved from one project in Rugby to a new project in Milton Keynes, this is good news for me because MK is a quite a bit closer to home, and easier to get to. The office is right in the centre of MK too, so a lunchtime stroll around the shopping centre is de rigueur at the moment (I'm trying to avoid Burger King and Quiznos though).I'm actually enjoying working here every day, I've

So, I've been steadily ploughing through the half box-set of Inspector Morse I bought from Blockbuster recently and it's been a good way to spend my evenings (especially as I am "Home Alone" this week).The thing I noticed right from the start is just how many Rover SD1's appear in the series... It's one of my favourite "classic" cars and I really want one (This one would do nicely!).

Well, the Grand Prix was excellent! I managed to get myself there after work on Friday afternoon to catch the last F1 practice session of the day, I also spent all of Saturday and (of course) Sunday there.Having not been to a formula 1 event before. I think my first impression is probably the same as everyone else: F1 cars are very, very loud!The atmosphere was fantastic all weekend, Club

While killing time in Blockbusters yesterday I had something of a stoke of luck; somebody had traded in a bunch of Inspector Morse DVDs. I had hoped it was a full box set but it only seems to be some of them, it's not a problem to me though because I walked away with 16 DVDs for £20 and that is what is really important.So, I foresee a few evenings of watching Morse with a nice bottle of red wine

About 80 cyclists have been given £30 fines for jumping red traffic lights in Oxford in just two hours. Good. For the last few months I've been driving through that junction in a truck each Saturday morning and the cyclists are a nightmare. I don't have a problem with cyclists not stopping at a pedestrian crossing if the lights are red (assuming there isn't anyone crossing at the time, of

The weather has gone a bit "Chicken Oriental" in the last couple of days; storms and massive amounts of rain have been causing havoc, but this morning there isn't a cloud in the sky.We missed most of the extreme weather round these parts, I suppose that's a good thing but chaps like me with beards and Swiss-Army knives do like a crisis.

So the new logo for the 2012 Olympics then?It's a modern day "Emperors New Clothes" isn't it? It cost £400,000 and if you think it's rubbish then you obviously just "don't get it".God save us from these Marketing types.And yeah, it does look a bit like Lisa Simpson giving a Blowjob.

It's our 8th wedding anniversary today, to celebrate this fact I took the car to be serviced and then spent all day alone in Oxford with just my mountain bike for company.We had planned to drop the car off together and then go into town and "do something", but fears of the car not being ready by school-picky-up time scuppered that. It was a wise decision because they didn't finish the service

I've scored the early Saturday morning truck driving gig on a permanent basis now, it's only right when you consider that I have done it every Saturday (and some Sundays) for months on end now.I don't mind doing it, I think I'm getting used to getting up at 3am but it does kind of spoil Friday nights as I tend to be trying to sleep instead of drinking/winding down from a bad week in the "proper

I really should do something with this blog, it needs a bit of an update as I've been using the same template since it started and bits have stopped working.The problem is, I don't think I'll be able to muster enough enthusiasm to do anything about it...In other news, I saw a Bugatti Veyron on the A5 the other day. If I had a spare £750,000 I might think about getting one myself.

We spent Saturday evening at the Summertown Wine Cafe, it's a fantastic place and one in which I very much hope to be spending more time soon.You might expect wine tasting to be a bit of a stuffy affair, but this place is excellent because the atmosphere is great and it's a place you can really relax in. We tasted around six different wines an settled on a decent bottle of Bordeaux, my kind of

It's shaping up to be quite a busy week, Bank Holiday weekends tend to be a bit hectic in my line of work as it's an ideal time to shut the railway down for a couple of days and get some proper work done.I'm hoping that I can iron out all the outstanding "issues" by a reasonable time tomorrow as I want to get home on time (or even early!). We have a family get-together tomorrow night, then I

It's May Morning today, and a lovely one it is too!I got up early (4am ish) and drove to the Water Eaton Park & Ride in Kidlington, from there I cycled to the High St and perched myself on the wall outside Magdalen College. I arrived a bit early really (before 5.30am) but it's a great spot for some people watching, and there is always the opportunity to engage some disheveled revellers in some

I took the new bike for a proper ride today, all went well and it was a pleasure to ride, it should be even better when I'm a little fitter!I loaded the bike into the car and drove to Boars Hill in Oxford, from there I travelled through Bayworth and Sunningwell and then through Abingdon to my brothers place in South Abingdon (to pay for the bike!). I called in to see my parents on the way back

We've become a family of keen cyclists recently; Mrs T has bought herself a nice new Mountain Bike from the local Halfords, it's a full suspension ladies MTB which was fairly cheap but has decent enough components to make it a promising (and comfortable) bike for cycling around town.Georgia has finally taken the big step of having the stabilisers removed from her bike, it took a couple of days (

I watched a little bit of VH1 Classic this evening with Georgia, we were watching Guns 'n Roses doing a live (at the time) version of "Knockin' on Heavens Door" when she said: "Daddy, I don't think they are really girls, are they?"Later I blew her mind while we watched Michael and Janet Jackson doing "Scream" by telling her that one was a boy and the other was a girl...

According to Treehugger; the most immediately effective thing a Treehugger can do is to drive at the speed limit.I think this is probably very true. This week I have been driving at, or below, the speed-limit for whichever road I'm travelling on and I still have fuel left in the tank on a Friday.I've managed to get over 40mpg this week which is better than the 33ish mpg I've been getting over

Although it was more by accident than design, Georgia and I managed to get to Oxford last night and see the Luminox "large scale fire installation". We really enjoyed it; it was interesting to see and the atmosphere was really good too, I even managed to have a couple of good chats with bearded types hanging around the exhibition...Saturday was actually a very Oxford-centric day; I was out from

I shouldn't have written that post about not working yesterday, just afterwards the phone rang and I ended up going to Windsor and London.Afternoon traffic in London is a nightmare compared to early morning traffic; I spent ages crawling from Marble Arch to Canary Warf and I was really late getting home.Still, it's all money in the bank and I can do my Shake 'n Vac session today!

No work today for the first time in ages, it's really nice not having to get up at 3.30am! The bank balance is almost healthy too, so not working this weekend isn't going to cause any problems.It's a lovely (looking) day out there, I shall be spending the morning doing some housework which may include a vigorous session of Shake 'n Vac action later on.I may go for a walk or a ride on my bike

It's been a long shitty winter really; I've worked a bit too hard and have too little to show for it. I'm pretty miserable really, but it's more of a feeling sorry for myself sort of thing rather than a proper miserableness.At least it is starting to get lighter in the evenings now though, I'm determined not to waste the lighter months so I'll be getting myself out there and doing stuff at some

Thanks to a post by Jim I was reminded that Lewis (the Inspector Morse spin-off) starts tomorrow at 9pm.I'm determined not to miss it, I have made a note in Google Calendar so I should get a text message 10 mins before it starts!I'm hoping I can stay awake for it though, early start today (3.30am) and the same again tomorrow is messing up my sleeping schedule!

Being the helpful soul that I am, I lent a hand to three stranded motorists on three separate occasions today.First up was a Jaguar S type which had crashed into a lamp-post and then got stuck in the snow, managed to push him back onto the road with the help of another chap.Then, round the shops, a BMW 3 series was stuck in the snow on a bit of an incline. Again, a good push (this time with the

Finally, a decent snowfall around here!I "worked from home" today as you can see from this picture!I also spent some time hurling the car round some empty car-parks because it's really good fun and I think it's handy to practice recovering from slides as you never know when you may find yourself in one.I don't think we are due more snow but I

The weekend in Spain went well, no hassle getting there or back on Ryanair and it was really good to see the in-laws again after 8 months.The weather wasn't great, cold and windy, but they have a nice place over there and plans are being made for an extended visit (or visits) later in the year. Personally, I quite fancy the idea of driving down through France and Northern Spain while eating all

I worked again today in the weekend job, I was a spare driver which meant that from 4am to 9.30am I sat and did nothing until a job came in.I only had one delivery to make, to the Grosvenor Hotel on Park Lane in London. I didn't see any movie stars but then I suppose they are unlikely to be lending a hand in the loading bay...I think this weekend work has been helping the finances, Christmas

Today was sort of my first day back at work, I say sort of because I had to take the car for a service first thing and then I worked from home.I didn't really have a whole lot to do today so in the afternoon I took Clare and Georgia to Milton Keynes so that they could do a bit of shopping and I went for a decent stroll around Campbell Park.I was really impressed with the park, I didn't know it

Arses. I've just been told that my car was "caught" on 8th December doing "something" in Northamptonshire... It's all very vague because it's the leasing company talking to my employer, I'm sure it's something simple like triggering a speed camera but I'll have to wait and see.

Happy New Year to all of youse. I've not been out tonight but it's gone 3am and I'm still here with only Jacob's Creek and Stinky Cheese for company... Diet starts again in earnest tomorrow which is fine because I'm not as much as a bloater as I once was and I have an undercurrent of rage that is ripe to see me through any new exercise regime.

When I'm working and enjoying early starts, I try to get myself to bed somewhere between 9.30 and 10pm. It's not worked out like that tonight because I have been distracted by a few fantastic websites that I just can't stop browsing...First up is the Self Build Motor Caravan Club, next is the Big Merc project at Stealth Camper and finally an awesome Unimog Camper which is causing me to feel

My long awaited yearly bonus was paid on Friday, that's a relief and has certainly helped us get back on track with all the bills and such like. I'm still going to do some extra work at the weekends though because I'm determined to build up a buffer of cash to deal with anything unexpected that may come along in the future.My relationship with money has totally changed in the last few years, I've

I was up at 3.30am again on Saturday to go out delivering produce to various places in London, this time I wasn't the driver but I made myself useful when it came to unloading the stuff! This time of year makes for very big orders and I think we probably shifted a good few tons of Vegetables, fruit and meat. All the stuff had to be shifted about by hand and I really ache today.

I've now got my very own wireless network at work, it's great! Everyone else has to make do with their corporate machines and I have internet access that isn't limited or monitored by anyone, it's ace!The only problem is that I can't access the network from my desk.

So, The Mailbox carpark in Birmingham is the best place to park in Britain. I used to park there everyday when I worked in the office building next to it, it's pretty good but "almost like a nightclub"?

I've had a BT Business Broadband line installed in my office recently, it should be activated tomorrow. This is good news because it's been a right pain having to do all my work on a slow GPRS connection. I'm also getting a wireless router and 250 minutes of BT Openzone access per month, it's quite pricey at almost £800 but well worth it (especially as someone else is paying).Elsewhere things

Still keeping pretty busy; haven't had a day off for weeks now but I think the time is coming where I might be able to ease off a little bit.I still have 5 days of holiday left to take before the end of the year, I think the week before Christmas is looking like a good option. I have been wondering if it might be a good idea to spend those 5 days working in the other job in order to get paid

Drove up to South Yorkshire (Doncaster) for a meeting this morning, it's one of those places that you always expect to be further away then it really is. Normally it's a pretty good run up there as the M1 is fairly close to my place and it takes you almost all the way, today there were loads of accidents and it was a crap journey.Sat-Nav saved my arse yet again because I had to be there at 10am

No work today, but I do have a shift tomorrow starting at 4am! This time I'll be loading a lorry with bread and delivering it to shops somewhere in the Thames Valley, I have a feeling that I'll be heading into London again. If you wake up on Sunday morning and your local corner shop has no bread then I could very well be lost... sorry!The good news is that this time I'll be finished early

I'm really very tired right now.Last night was OK, I started my shift at 5.30pm but we didn't leave the depot until gone 7pm. Our route was into London in an articulated lorry where we spent most of the night making deliveries to the various Pret coffee/sandwich places. I couldn't do the driving (obviously) so my job was helping to get the deliveries from lorry to (empty) shop and make sure

It looks like I have more work tonight; Drivers Mate 6pm -2am. Might be a struggle getting up for work at 6.30am tomorrow but it's a one off and I'm sure I can take a bit of time out of the office tomorrow for a quick snooze!I think I might try and have a kip this afternoon by way of preparation.

Well, today one of my plans came to fruition; I've spent the day driving a big truck.After a couple of weeks of sorting out paperwork and references and wotnot, I manged to get on the books of the agency and got a call at 7.45am today asking if I'd be interested in a job, I was.I got to the depot at 8.30am and after a bit of waiting around I drove out of the gates at around 11am.Prior to leaving

It really interesting watching a live feed from the space shuttle, at the moment there is a space-walk which makes for pretty good viewing.

I'm thinking of getting the mini out of the garage and getting it back on the road. I've had a good look around it and it's not in such a bad shape really, needs a bit of welding but nothing too serious and I'd be confident enough to tackle it myself (need to buy a MIG welder first though).A good thing to aim for would be the 2007 International Mini Meeting which is going to be held in Denmark

I have learnt two things so far tonight and it's only 7.30pm.The first thing I have learnt is that just because you only spent £2.80 on it you don't necessarily have to drink a rough red wine. The South Eastern Australian Red you get from Tesco is actually alright, it's not quite a '95 Chateau Margaux, but it does a pretty good job of taking the edge of a painfully monotonous day in

I think I'm going to try and get myself along to the next Oxford Critical Mass. It might seem an odd event to appeal to someone who drives 35,000 miles per year* but I agree with the principles.I think it should be safe and easy to commute in our Cities by bicycle (or on foot) and I think our public transport system should provide a credible alternative to relying on cars.More on Critical Mass

I signed on at an agency this afternoon in the hope that I can pick up some work at the weekends.That's the trouble with my job; it's nice to have a salary and a car and stuff, but there is no opportunity to earn a bit extra when you need it. I used to work overtime and get paid for it, now I'm a "manager" I work overtime and don't get paid for it!So, rather than moaning about not having any

I've got this urge to load my bike on (or in) the car and head to London for a look around.I figure that if I went on a Sunday there would be no congestion charge and you can (normally) park for free on the streets if you're lucky. I could take lunch and a flask of coffee and have a good cycle around the streets followed by lunch in one of the parks and maybe a quick look at the dinosaurs in the

So, just after I published that last post a cheque arrived from the Inland Revenue with that tax rebate (just under £500). Now that is really handy and it would have put an end to the current money hassle... were it not for the fact that our bank has extended it's cheque clearing cycle to 6 working days because of "large amounts of cheque fraud".The funds will clear next Wednesday, one day

I'm feeling a bit better now. Things are still tough but there is light at the end of the tunnel; we have no spare cash at all and childcare is proving to be a nightmare but paydays are coming, school starts in a couple of weeks and Mrs T is due a tax rebate which, while not huge, will help a bit. The trick is to try to stay positive (and busy).So, in other news, I'm thinking about learning

It's Big Brother final night and Mrs T is a big fan...I think I'll get myself upstairs until the morning because I think they are all a bunch of tossers and it's just painful to watch.

You know what? I'm completely miserable at the moment.I remember the last time I had a "proper" holiday (which was 7 years ago) I felt pretty low for a good couple of weeks after returning home, same thing is happening now.Part of the problem now is that, in order to ensure a good time while away, we used some money normally spent on bills and changed it to dollars... now we are totally skint and

We're back from our holiday, it was really good despite the mental heat.Traveling home was as much of a nightmare as expected after "that plot", over 5 hours delay on our flight and then some cock up with the bags at Gatwick added another hour and a bit.We got home at some point this afternoon (I've totally lost track of time so I can't be more specific) I've made the mistake of sleeping a bit

This always happens to me; book time off and then work stupidly hard in the days before trying to get loads of stuff done.So, really I should be on holiday now but I can see a long night of work ahead of me. Still it's not all bad because the temperature has dropped a bit (not much), the phone isn't likely to ring, I have a fan pointed at my head and Annie Mac is on Radio 1.Another thing that is

The new Central Oxford Mosque had an open day at the weekend, I wish I had known about it before now as I would have liked to have gone to it.I wouldn't class myself as a religious person, but I am interested in religion and I would specifically like to learn more about Islam.I'll keep an eye out for future events.

I was right about the storm, it arrived here really quickly and it was one of the most violent ones I've seen for a long time... it was great!I have four work days left until we are off on our holiday for a couple of weeks, I'm hoping I can work from home for those (going to have to really as schools are off and someone has to keep an eye on Georgia).I have quite a lot of stuff to fit into these

Watching the Storm Data at the moment, I've been following the progress of what looks like a pretty decent storm working it's way up from Southampton. It looks like it's coming this way, batten the hatches!

I'm sat watching Ray Mears on the telly (it's what I do) and he's making a wig-wam type thing with an American chap, I instantly identified the background music as Triptico from Gotan Project.Pete will be so proud.

We went for a bit of a drive tonight, partly to stave off boredom but mainly because I think we all needed an "aircon moment".While driving through Oxford I saw a young woman with (what looked like) pretty serious head injuries. There were plenty of police officers with her and I could see an ambulance and a Fast Response Unit (FRU) on the way.She was concious, sat on the kerb holding a wad of

That pub used to be called "The Brewhouse", it came to me in a flash of inspiration without the aid of Google or a Safety Net.This will mean nothing to you unless you were at the Oxford Bloggers meet-up (and maybe not even if you were)

iTrip to be legalised. I didn't realise these sort of things were not legal, the Honda I've got has one built in so that you can listen to audio from the DVD player over the main audio system (otherwise you can use the two pairs of infrared headphones).
