Debut

My Outstanding Debut...

Well yesterday was my first day. It went well - far from the usual temp situation of being thrown in at the deep end (usually carying bricks) I was eased in by the manager not being present and mostly getting tours of the offices, site and general job ideas. Today was similar, but with talks about job and actual work thrown in for fun.

Tomorrow sees the first training session, luckily I am trainee not trainer so no problems there.

It's a nice place with nice people, moving closer will be a must though. I can get a burnt out house for £45,000 not too far away, or do some renting in studenty areas. A 15 min walk to work would be a really plesant change.

Jet Plane Landing was great, the usual chat about how the fans make it possible and everyone on stage for the encore. Good to talk to Andrew and Co. about Truck, Irish music & the Indepandant scene. They are even reissuing Acrimony later this year!

Brendon Benson on Fri was a quiet affair, with just him & Dean from the Waxwings on keys. Nice enough, but I'd have liked more instruments! And the Interpol & Mansun albums are as great as they should be, which after a year of mostly disapointing follow up albums is a nice change. And the best of Morrissey was only £2.99 in the HMV sale - knew I'd get to use the vouchers eventually!
