Got back up here last Saturday night. Went to la Gabbia for food with mum. Sunday I just unpacked and tried to prepare for my tests and interview last Monday at P&G. Despite arriving late having gone to the wrong branch and getting lost on the way to the right one, it went really well! Will know the outcome tomorrow. Went to the Hnacock on Monday evening for Chris' bday drinks. Tuesday I went shopping for officewear and a few other things before starting my job on Wednesday.
Is a little boring but ok. Had work drinks on Friday, have had an incredibly lazy bank holiday weekend only venturing out so far to go to Morrisons and meet Julia for coffee. Hopefully off to Tyneside cinema tonight. Have finished season 1 of Prison Break. Was going to drive to Tynemouth today but cant find anyone to go with me, and the weather isnt great. Plus, with it being bank holiday, I doubt Ill find anywhere to park. Think will go 2 weeks today with Mary and co. In the process of getting a reference for French from Sandra for my my MA application...

Leaving Worcester!
Have been to Pershore (to the abbey to look for Cath), Ombersley twice (once to meet up w Carolyn at the Kings Arms) and Droitwich, just for drives mainly. Have tried to watch Love in the time of Cholera (boring) and been to see The Winters Tale in College Hall at Kings, and Love and Lust at the Cathedral (Philarmmonic Orchestra).
Been to the pub quiz at the old Poachers Pocket out at sixways, bought series one of Prison Break and Gery's Anatomy off Amazon, and season 4 of SATC, half way through Prison Break already. Been to the launch night of Worcs Music Festival at the Drummonds, and for food at Little Venice, going to the Beer festival this afternoon, was in Shrewsbury yesterday - went out for a meal there at the Riverside Inn.
Vicki's girly night got cancelled, havent dared to drive out to Suckley, have been to the Dragon once or twice, and to London. Saw Trini and her friends some ofwhose names I forget, stayed with Helen, and met up with Angie in St James Pak, and Antony out at the wharf. Went to Covent garden, leicester square, trafalgar square, piccadilly circus, notting hill gate, national gallery and to the entrance of the British museum (already been). Saw Buddy the musical (Hels knows Dean Elliott wh plays Buddy), and went to Chinatown and Bar Salsa for food and a quick dance, and went to Tower Hill for the bridge and tower of London, but was too expensive to go in....
Up to Newcastle tomo, got to practise online tests for Procter and Gamble on Mon, have interview with Hays then too. Have DVDs for touch-typing and ECDL to do too, some time soon.

Still have an interview with Hays on 18th August re a job as a French-speaking Customer support role in some IT company in Sunderland.

Went out for a meal at Ask with Vicki, Steph, Charlie, Hannah and Ruth on Monday night.

Off to the cinema this avo to see Dark Knight, going out with Hannah and co on Thurs, on Fri we're hopefully going to Charlie's parents' flat in Malvern, though Im supposed to be going to the theatre with Mum, and Saturday it's round to Vicki's for a girly night. Hummmm
