It's been a while reader!

So here I am. Back from the Americas, sitting at my new desk, basking in the glory of life as a quantity surveyor.

First things first; my exploration of the New World was fun, the food was plentiful and the clothing cheap - the beer not so! I now hate myself for enjying a Michelob beer.....no no no, Ultra is nasty beer that makes me sick whilst playing Centurion, that and the fact that Sam started talking to me. Instead I enjoyed the dark beer of Amber Bock, when I said I enjoyed it, I actually mean that it was the best beer of a bad bunch.

Anyway, brought back loads of things for L so hopefully they'll keep her happy for a while, that and the perfume, lotion and Earle the penguin I also got her! But I miss her. Liverpool isn't too far away, but the travelling and 8am starts look as though they can be problematic. I hope she stays, I want her to stay so much.

After having problems with maths and looking at technical drawings this morning, I wish that I'd paid more attention whilst at university; quantity suveying is awesome! Anyway, lunch break is over and I must earn my salary. Allegedly.
