    I came back home today to sort out a car to take back with me and found a nice Corsa with low mileage and one previous owner. Hopefully the finance will work out OK and I’ll be able to drive back to Lancaster on Friday. Insurance is a bit of a pain though, as I’m now being quoted 200-400 quid more than I was originally.

    Had some fun (!) training at the new pub last night – the trainers really know how to patronise you, but at least I’m missing out on more ’til the weekend.

    Well I arrived back in Lancaster on Sunday afternoon to another new (and empty) house. I came back to uni early to get on with the Bailrigg FM website, but when I got here, the computer that I would have done the site on is buggered. It is in need of a new (and not easy to get hold of) motherboard. Which is quite irritating.

    Feels like my whole journey up here was wasted. And I’ve gotta go back home tomorrow for a family thing on Thursday. I really do have the worst luck. Bloody Murphy’s Law has been annoying me for weeks.

    At least I’ve got a job in the new JD Wetherspoon pub Sir Richard Owen opening here next week (where Springs nightclub used to be), but I can only make a couple of days training. Which they weren’t too happy about…

    I’ve been working hard for the last few weeks as usual. I’m at the College at the moment taking 5 minutes out from inputting GCSE results. Joys.

    Everything is just about packed away into boxes at home now, all ready for the move at the weekend. I’d better try and remember which house I’m returning to after working til 1 am… methinks the new family would not be too impressed.

    Haven’t managed to get a motor sorted yet as I haven’t had five minutes spare to properly look and make a decision. The old finances are a bit iffy as well. Looks like I might be getting the train back to Lancaster.
