Nadeane & Dean's Trip
Hi Everyone!
Just a quick one to update you on whats been happening here in London. We arrived here on the Saturday and stayed in a yucky hostel to start off with. We both had interviews with recruitment agencies on the Monday, and Dean was lucky enough to be hired for a really good job that afternoon! Unbelievable!
There is a lot of demand for accountants over here, so the pay is really good too. It's for the Marriott Vacation Club, which develops and operates luxury holiday accommodation for the rich...and there's the added bonus that Dean may be asked to go to Spain for two weeks to do the accounts over there... tough life!!
I registered with an agency, but there is not as much work around in my field at the moment. I had an interview on Friday with DTZ, a really big international property consultancy, so fingers crossed I find out today whether I've got the job!
We were lucky enough to find a good flat in a really nice area. It's actually just the next suburb from where Paul McCartney lives... very posh! We are only about 100m from the tube station and it's only a 10 minute tube ride into the city which is very nice!
On Saturday we went to the Portobello Road Markets and did a tour of Kensington Palace, where Princess Diana lived. It was pretty cool. Yesterday we did a day trip to Stonehenge and Bath, to see the neat Roman baths that are there. That was fun.
There's a long weekend next week so we might be going to Paris... we'll see.
Anyway better go.
Nadeane & Dean
