As Good As It Gets

I've just found out that the people in the flat below are selling their apartment. This is both good news and bad news. Good news because, while they're nice, they can be quite loud. And bad news because although they're loud, they only spend half the year living here. Which means for the other half of the year, I have the place to myself.

My contract at Time Incorporated is also coming to an end after next week. There's a chance I might go back to Virgin, but at the moment I'm using it as a backup plan. Which means that right now, with no downstairs neighbours, an easy, well paying job, and my London landlord on holiday, this is as good as it gets.

Eh, I'll take it.

Not Quite A Handyman

Despite being a homeowner, I'm not really very good at it. I just tried hanging a picture on the wall. But instead of a picture, I knocked off a coin sized amount of paint, and bent the nail in half. Baby steps...

Happy 2016

Welcome to the future! Last year I bought my first apartment, and finally unpacked everything after ten years. What's in store for this year? Who knows. I realized the other day that I've been contracting for nearly as long as I was working in Bournemouth. Let's hope when my contract is up next month I can land a new client, as I'd love to keep doing this!
