Long Time No See

Howdy! (Hmm, bit cringy but let's go with it.)

So, I haven't written a post in... well, a long time. I'd like to say it was because I was incredibly busy or some such, but that'd be a lie, I just lost interest. Anyhoo, I'm back today! Don't all cheer at once.

Suffice it to say my life has changed somewhat in the past few months. When you last read about my life I was a student not really enjoying university and finding anything to do to keep away from doing work. Well, let me update you all.

Firstly, I have discovered an immense appreciation for Elvis Presley after the single best night I have ever worked at Keighley Golf club - A big thank you to an exceptionally talented man called Andy Wood. Kudos!

Secondly, and I suppose some might see this as a bit more of a biggy, I left University, bummed about for a bit, got my act together and got my self a career as a site engineer for a big Civil Engineering company. I miss everyone out in Manchester, (you know who you are) but some times you just have to take these opportunities. Bit of a change, I'm aware. Many people have asked me just how I landed the position having done three irrelevant A levels and having no further qualifications even closely resembling anything to do with construction. Well, it's a mixture of luck, who you know as opposed to what you know and a damn fine interview. After being there a month I am content with my current situation and it would appear I've found a job for life offering me a lot of room for progression and places to branch out. I think I can safely call this a win, if not possibly even an epic win.

Oh and thirdly, I've bought my self an iPad 2, I have become a slave to the Apple monster and I don't care.

Love and
