Well ....

It's been a long time (shamefully). So what's been happening?

I suppose the most interesting thing is that I have a new job (different location, same grade, with same organisation). I've become an audio-typist again, and I'm really enjoying it most of the time - and have left behind me that atmosphere of 'being watched' and feeling jealous of the 'favoured ones', and I can see how sapping of the mental and spiritual energy that was.

My husband also has a new job, as readers of 'Driving to Distraction' (formerly 'Diary of the Rat Man') will know. I'm still working on productive use of the time between me getting home around 6.30 and him getting home around 8.30 - oh, I dunno, I think sitting on my bed listening to Radio 4 and eating Revels is very constructive! Currently trying to declutter the flat - where does it all come from?

So that's life at the moment I guess. That and the fact that my keyboard has just been invaded by 11lb of fluffy tabby cat - not the most helpful writer's aid.

I leave you with an ad seen in my employer's internal newspaper: 'Wanted: bass player for Chas'n'Dave-type pub band. Also to do Latvian bar songs'.
