Ok folks, it’s been over a month since I last posted, obviously I have some amazing reason for this like…. I won the lottery and have been sunning myself on an island i bought……. or…….. I was done for money laundering and put inside for a month then escaped!!! But sadly no neither of these were the reason. In truth I have just been rather busy both with JPA and my own businesses and my rather hectic social calander (don’t I sound so popular).
So what has been happening to me recently?? Well most recently I spent two wonderful days in Darlington. I was up there opening a new office for my company and setting up all the IT equipment. Unfortuantly the story was not all wonderful. I went up on Monday with the view that I was going to get up there find the equipment all waiting for me, set it all up and come home the same day. Of course this meant I had a bag with my laptop, and another with some cables and IT bits etc etc.. of course no change of clothes or wash kit was taken. So when on the train (using the WiFi internet that GNER so kindly provided at a hefty cost), I get a call from one of the employees due to start at the office saying "was there supposed to be some equipment here?" my heart sank faster than the titanic. The suppliers had messed up, I asked for delivery on the friday and they had not done it. I instantly got on the blower and called the suppliers to find out where our stuff was. The jist of it, it was still in thier warehouse and had no hope of getting delivered today! Bloody wonderful! So i spent a day in darlington working remotely and setting up anything i could (which wasn’t much) I then had to book a hotel and all that and of course with no change of clothes, or washing kit when I got to the hotel to find that it had no shop or anything i was not best pleased! So i had to wash my shirt as best i could in the bath and dry it over night and luckily there was some shower gel in the bathroom!
The next day the pc equipment was delivered and I was able to do my job, but by 2pm that afternoon i was very tired, unshaven, smelly and really wanting to go home and have a bath. So i got a lift to the station and got on a train and came home! All in all a fairly poor experience for me and i got to see nothing of Darlington itself I am told i didn’t miss much!
Other things that happened to me in the last month? Well ITFC finished the season in thier worst position for 44 years and then parted with thier manager! I finished the Automatic watering system finally though due to a hosepipe ban have no idea if it works or not 
. I booked tickets to see One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest in London and I am going to that this Saturday, so that should be good! I also went back to Suffolk for my best mates 22nd birthday, we took his boat up the Norfolk broads from Lowestoft to Norwich and boy did we drink to much! stayed the night in Norwich and went clubbing, which all added to the drunkeness, but a good time was had by all and the next morning was certainly an interesting time with hangovers and walking to morrisons in an inside out t-shirt shorts and builders boots (it was a rather funny sight)
Apart for that the same old things have been happening to me, the date for me leaving JPA is getting ever nearer, and with that I have been concentrating on my own businesses a bit more with my 2 newest ventures taking priorty. Check out www.adstoday.co.uk and keep checking as this we are sure is going to be the next big thing (maybe)
Right i have rambled on far to long now so I am going to finish, and believe me I’ll be posting again soon!
