Just a brief note, as the library shuts in a few minutes!

Yesterday, I was given the go-ahead to get my PhD thesis printed. On Monday, when I get back from the short break in London I'm about to take with Tractorgirl, I'll be able to hold the finished thing in my hands. It's a bit hard to process, but I'm really looking forward to that.

At the same time, I've been offered a job with a bank down in Milton Keynes doing Credit Risk Analysis. I had a really good interview for a similar role with another bank today in Leeds. If the second makes me an offer, it'll be a tough decision. Both seemed really nice to work for and the jobs would be stimulating and worthwhile. I can't deny that it's great to know I'll be somewhat nearer to TractorGirl either way, and not be sent to work away from home for long periods.

I may have bugger-all money, which is still an issue, but I am one of the luckiest TOHs ever. I will have a good job, I've finished my thesis, I have a wonderful partner (watch this space for news on that front... ), a loving family and great friends. God is very good today :)
