    Yeah for new Job :)

    Well i started my new job yesterday and i have to say that a day and a half in, i'm absolutely chuffed with how things have gone, its still currently a huge learning exercise.

    The guys here are great, some good office banter already and i've managed to prove I know my stuff which is excellent.

    Things are so sorted, arrived to find a new dell desktop setup for me, all my dev environment setup so only needing tweaking, so i'm already heavily into coding stuff which is great.

    Office environment is great, got great big windows that open out to the world which is great, birds singing outside, its superb conditions even with the slightly HOT temperature.

    Talk about glad to have moved job - its superb, and my new digs have been excellent. Will be back online from Thursday when i'm at another office where i can go back home for broadband to keep playing il2 with the rest of the MA squadron here

    Things are good in the life of TiG, Hexus browsing is now limited to lunch times though. Well i want to make a good impression don't I

    Nice one mate - nothing quite so cool as enjoying what you do, where you do it and having a cool team to work with!

    Excellent stuff chap - May be worth finding out if you can VPN in, therefore meaning you can spend a long weekend at home; Though i'd leaving it a few weeks before asking, don't want em to get the wrong idea!

    Yay! Good one TiG, glad you're happy and enjoying it


    I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.
