Not a lot of news today. The agency called and said they’d had (positive) feedback from N, who I’d met yesterday. But AFAIC (as far as I’m concerned) that doesn’t mean all that much as he’s not the decision maker, just an influencer. He’s meeting the Director (of the corporate function I perform) tomorrow and [...]

Yet another update.
There’s not a great deal to say unfort. I met the guy at lunchtime and we went for a sandwich. Turns out he’s only been there 2 months and is himself on contract. The role would involve working closely with him. I got on pretty well with him (he’s middle aged, married with [...]

Now is the twilight zone.
I woke at 3.30am and couldn’t get back to sleep. It’s now just turning 6am. I don’t feel tooo bad, all things considered.
I’ve never had insomnia, at least, not until about 6 months ago when it began. I kind of know what causes it, much of which is ‘beyond the scope [...]

Today was rather eventful in more ways than one.
Firstly, that vile crone at work that some of you will remember me having blogged about in my prior incarnation, wound me up something chronic to the point that I raised an official complaint that I sent to the Head of the London office, CC’d to the [...]

I flew back from Praha (as it’s known locally) yesterday evening. Easyjet was surprisingly reliable. I got home about 12.30am this morning and we even managed to make the last train from central London.
I had an enjoyable 4 days. It’s a lovely city. Really pictureseque and beautiful without being massively over the top (like say [...]

I had the job interview this afternoon. It went fine. Considering the firm (quite high profile), the location (premium location in the City) and the sector (commercial law) I was expecting to be quite nervy about the whole thing; but I wasn’t. I think the main reason for this is that I don’t know for [...]

I have a pretty big job interview on Tuesday with a major City law firm. I’m expected to do quite a bit of prep. Not easy when I only found out I was being invited to interview yesterday - I’m now about to head to Prague and am not back until very late Monday!
I’ve printed [...]

I had an enjoyable day. Sharing one’s birthday with a saint is never easy. OK, that’s an exaggeration. Anyway, the office laid on a saint’s day party in the office - not for my birthday, I should add, but because they’re trying to raise morale, etc. Anyway, we had big old pork pies, chunky sandwiches, [...]

I had a very good meeting with the agency this morning. Agencies are not all the same. Some are crap, some are decent. I genuinely felt this one was decent.
I was there a full hour and had a really good in-depth discussion. I really liked the lady I was dealing with. They have an extremely [...]

I feel fine in fact. 6 of us went out for drinks to my new favourite wine bar. We also ate, which helped. I had a burger. Mmmmmmmm, was delish, real ‘gastro pub’ type burger, very nice. That and a lot of red wine.
I don’t smoke these days so never feel quite so bad the [...]
