It's at least 4 weeks since my last instalment sorry… In fairness to my blog slackness, it has been a pretty busy 4 weeks so hopefully there'll be enough to keep you at least slightly entertained for a while.
Job
I am now a barmaid! Since my last update, I have secured a job at Ye Olde George Inn, a small but busy pub in Christchurch (which I might add for the benefit of Australians that haven't experienced country pubs in England, allows dogs to come inside - there's even a meal for them on the menu!). I managed to get myself into a slight panic about doing something completely different like bar work, but to both mine and Nige's surprise, I'm actually not bad at it (thanks to the hidden personality that comes out of me when I step behind the bar)!
My pub experience started over the 4 nights of the Easter long weekend so easing myself in wasn't really an option! As you may imagine, the pay is fairly meagre, but it's the experience and the meeting people that will keep me going for until the end of April or so. After that, Nige and I will take off either to somewhere else for a while, or start travelling Europe. Nige is still looking for some kind of work to keep him occupied, but he might just have to settle for watching tv and wandering in and out of town to come and pick me up from work at random hours of the early morning.
