I am in Swindon. It is worse than I remember.
How are you spending your evening?
I will have a couple of pints, eat and read. Thank fuck for iPads, at least I won't be completely bored.

I nearly got a job in Swindon once
but I wasn't good enough. I stayed at a B&B where the guy asked me what I wanted out of a list of cereals. I selected Shreddies. Despite listing them, he hadn't got any. I said that was fine but he went out and got some anyway, but got mixed up between Shreddies and mini Shredded Wheat which is entirely different. I had to eat mini shredded wheat with COLD milk. Sacrilege.
Don't fall into the same trap I did

Pretty sure there is no fancy food at Nando's
It is a small step up from KFC

I've heard it's KFC with cutlery.
Can't be bad.

That brief moment when you suddenly realise you don't like piri piri chicken...
It's a nando-second.

It's alright, I only ate half 'cus my stomach was caining cus I didn't eat all day or take an opiates, I got a doggy bag with it though.
But then my opiates kicked in as we were leaving so I wasn't in pain so we had a McFlurry and I got my doggy bag now.
I like nandos, it's pretty good, they owe me 3/4 of a chicken at the moment, I'm going to fill it out all the way and give it to a homeless man, it'll be a waste to give it to them now as they'll never be able to complete the card and get those 10 chicken wings. Only one more left for that I think. I also got a free meal at Abukado that I'm gonna give the farringdon station homeless guy; he has a dog now.
Nandos is shit if you don't like chicken or hot stuff, but amazing if you do. I had chicken livers with two roles and 3 wings instead of sides. Oh, and some chili jam which rocks.

Would you believe on of the agents I emailed was still up at 9:45?
Emailed back and forth, she sent me some properties, I picked a couple, going to see them tomorrow. I like that "I have nothing better to do than help you find somewhere to live" attitude in a letting agent.

Well when you're on the ground, you might be able to find something else, especially if you've got to hear back from other agencies.

True dat
I figure I'll hear from other places on the way down and try and arrange something for after. But if one of these places is acceptable I'm going to try my best to stick a pin in them. Metaphorically, Jeff.

that's just to get me into Bristol!
It would be another half hour once I get there
Though mr b3th agrees with you that I should have a trial run one day.

Progress at last.
Get a rush hour train in, and another home again and spend the day with the agencies.
Make sure you've got printed copies of your C.V as well as having them on a USB stick - also, make sure it's easily accessable to e-mail it from your phone, just in case that is the only way they can accept it.

That would imply having appointments with agencies
and I can't get any of them to answer my emails or talk to me on the phone.
It's a buyters market out there, alright.

Well send me a list of the agencies you want to contact and I'll either add to it, or if I know anyone there
I'll drop them a line.

Pretty much
My worst commute was about 100 minutes by car to get to a place in Nottingham. Anything more than that I've always stayed over in the week.
At the job I've just left it was 20-25 minutes. I allow more if on public transport because you can read, but it's still "shorter the better".

That's what puts me off working in Bristol.
I know it would add three hours a day to my working time, and I'd end up burning out before xmas. I've been there before, and I really don't want to spend another xmas vacillating between catatonic and hysterical.

I used to work with a lad who commuted up to Barnsley from Nottingham.
Given that he was on about £6 an hour, I thought he was mad. What with the price of car maintenance, insurance and petrol he probably couldn't have broken even.

Mate, you ever lived in London?
You shouldn't ever have to walk more than 10 minutes to a tube station if you don't want to, 90% one of them will have (inside your price range) somewhere good tempoary to live 'till you can get what you want. I've never been on the tube for long than an hour and a half, two max, and thats going from the two furthest points (cockfosters to Heathrow).
To give you an idea, it takes 40 mins to go from cockfosters to holbern, which is around half way across london.

And once you're in the tube, you're on it, get an ipod or a book out, and it doesn't matter how long it takes.
It takes me just over an hour to get into work and I don't think anything of it.

If you want any plugins and shit, wordpress is one of my key skills.
Get it hosted away from wordpress.org, pay the few quid a month, it means you can do litterally anything you want with the site. If you want someone to get that up'n'running for you, I can do that.
