At the moment it looks as though I'll be working every day, aside from the bank holidays...

Thinking of the money - I'm working 6.30pm friday until close (usually about 1-2am) then Saturday 9.30am through to 4.30pm, then again 6.30pm till close (1am-2am), then Sunday 10.30am to 4.30pm. Sadly all of this is at the standard rate.  But it's money.

Despite other posts to the contrary, I've decided that I like ebay. I've picked up two broken Samsung SM226BW 22" monitors. The second one, from ebay, arrived an hour ago. I stripped them both down, and have just rebuilt one fully functional monitor from the parts. It looks rather nice, sitting alongside my other 226. All for £42.50, including shipping. I'm feeling rather happy right now.

Likewise, our Xmas work is over, and there's only 2 more days until our long-awaited holiday. I feel quite used up and worn out, it's been a long and tiring year, a holiday is exactly what's required

It looks like I've just been offered a job! I have to go for an assessment/induction thing on Monday, but it sounds as if it's more of a formality, then I begin training on Tuesday. The job is warehouse work, and pays about half of what I was earning in my last job, but it is a job! It's been quite depressing watching the day to day bills chewing away at my redundancy money, maybe now I can stem the flow a little. So, for the second time in two days, I'm feeling rather happy.

My PS3 3-in-1 Blu-Ray Remote Control/Wireless Key Pad and Controller (phew) should be here soon* http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pair-Go-Total-C ... 275&sr=8-1* Though I'm a bit concerned that Amazon had to 'source' it, and it's not available at the minute from their site
