    I gots a job!

    A few of you may remember I got made redundant a while back, well almost 8months ago ... since then I have been doing a touch of voluntary work and applying for eevrything I am even remotely qualified for within my field (environmental consultancy).

    Well.

    it finally paid off!!

    I got a job, just found out from the agent who set up the interview... I am ecstatic to the point my stomach is churning! Don't know what to do with myself!!! I am one happy man
