Today we held a Jobs fair at work
The queue after two hours of opening had snaked a good 50 + m and was about four deep in places, lots of young and old people trying to get jobs, it's kinda upsetting. Loads of people all trying to jump through the same hoop.
Hope some of the people got something worthwhile out of it.

Saw, caught and evicted an adult cock roach from my flat last night.
Bit anxious, don't really want to call the landlord, and spray with incesticide and moving fills me with dread, I've been there for just under three years and am actually feeling settled there and the effort involved in packing, finding a home for everyone elses property and getting a deposit together etc
AS usual the self assurance mode kicks in and goes a little something like this;
when I first moved in I found what looked like a squashed roach by my front door, just assumed I'd bought it in on my shoes (another self assurance technique), also once at work I caught a juvenile roach which could have possibly come out of my bag but there was no to prove it, it just appeared from the vicinity of my bag, roaches can teleport though, and finally it was just hanging about near the radiator it had an opportunity to escape but didn't, it shifted behind the radiator for a bit and then come out to play again, which is when i caught it. It doesn't surprise me that I've seen one, I think i'm more surprised that it's taken that long, over the years there's been a few times when I've caught little beetle like creatures that could have been baby roaches and I've evicted them too.
Not sure how the above is reassuring but i do remember we found one when we first moved in Whitechapel and we never saw one again so..... if there about and they're shy that suits me besides the mice will probably eat them right.
Other then that little inconvenient blip, life in Craigsville is pretty cool, summer in terms of work was quite and i didn't earn too much money so things are a bit tight here but I had a cracker, I rediscovered my bike, which now needs some repair, back tyre and brake pads need replacing, could also do with a longer seat stem, it just seems a bit inefficient.
I was hoping to get back in photography i just need someone to give us a lift to and from Kent so I can pick up th eenlarger which can sit in my cellar for a while
and i've got to a production managemnet job for next year, need to get off my arse and start getting on with that though or the i'll get really bitten on the arse by the procrastination bug, stop thinking about it and start doing it..
Current mood: please, no.

My kitchens a wee bit messy, as is the garden, glad I bought the rubbish in though, admittedly this was provoked by hearing foxes going through the rubbish.

Trying to find an email address for yahoo, so I can tell them I only have one email address and them asking for me to submit another one so they can send me password reset information is a bit pointless.
How I meant to get hold of them, going through their service site and 'contact us' links is worse then going through a social care telephone system.
Answers will be greatly appreciated, I am wee bit of a luddite but even I find it distressing to only be able to find a postal address for a big internet company.

Do you know where I can buy / rent (for a week or so) the following items;
Cheap ukele
A grinding machine, like so.
3 very large wicker baskets - have to be large enough to sit in have to be large enough for a 20 stone man to sit in, oh the twenty stone man also has dodgy hips
A power point slide for the ' Happy Bottom Amateur Dramatic Society'
A red hot poker.
A quick hag make over
A costume for the love child of Elvis and a Bantam cock
All needed by Saturday the latest and all for under £250
We may still need to buy paint, light gels, hire a radio mic, hire a follow spot and get me a clone
Thankee

Been dreaming quite vividly and often these last few days, nowt traumatic butthink i'm just working through some study related stress, have got a lot on and some of my dreams seem to be related to stressful events,
In one I was quite peeved at someone for killing my honeysuckle - in real life i've got ivy choking my honey suckle, need to get into th egarden and try and trim one and not the other. In another I was pissed off with the tube barrier mistakenly taking £4 off my oyster card, so more slight annoyance then heart attack inducing stress, no worries.
But last night I dreamed I had some form of telekinesis and when my alarm woke up (which is actualy in another room, logic being I have to get up and walk to it to turn it off - thus I stay up. Reality being I get up turn alarm off and promptly return to bed) I tried to turn it off by just waving my arm and using my telekinesis powers, suffice to say this failed.

Craig's phone.
After two plus years of active service, Craig's phone suffered a seizure last night from which it never truly recovered, despite making promising signs at first, it appeared that the fight for life was too much for it's aging heart and it's now dead.
Can't even turn the fucker on.
When I get a new phone you'll know what to do, but until then if you need to get hold of me - Tough, you can't

And now it itches.

a friend is promoting a night on Sunday 12th April, she has booked a band who for some reason seem to have had problems getting instruments and backline through customs.
The band are called 'the muck And mires'.
the club night is called the 'cramps fetish night psychedelic safari'
Do you know anyone who would rent / lend instruments and kit, do you know any garage (the 60's punky kind not the the 2 step kind) bands that would be up for supporting and kit sharing, get in touch and I'll pass your details on.
thankee
