Default I'm living in 'exciting times'...

Yes - 'tis true I tell ee....

The bike is sweet...(even if I am hitting insurance/tax etc renewal season)...

Been on a liitle rideout of my own...which was nice...

Been away for a few days on hols...


AND...

we arrive back today that Mrs Stingo has been offered the job that she was interviewed for a few days ago!


She was also told to start today... so she did.



This is indeed very exciting...


She packed in work a while ago to do the 'mum' thing and focus on the early days of the kids...which actually was a bloody good decision and the garden would appear to be quite rosey.

She didn't want to return to her old place of work (even tho' she could have done so at the drop of a hat) for a range of reasons...but still felt that some extra wonga, conkers, dinaros, spondooleys, coins of the realm etc would come in dead handy (of course I had to agree) so we looked at the options and came with the goods which is great...so we are now a two income household again ...splice the mainbrace!!

Ah - a point indeed and well made she be!! But there is the law (more sort of guideline really ) of 'needs must'...which takes precedence at this time...although cunningly she will actually be allowed to have much of the summer off (in August) so the rose just got rosier!!

Blimey - that's not on!! Can't say as I've ever had a problem with sort of thing....only when I met the missus (Plymouth girl), she told me that her philosophy of life was to not date a service man, not date someone with baggage and to not date somebody who'd already been married and was divorced....hmmm ...that'll be me then!! . I satisfied all those criteria...as well as something else apparently...but that must surely be for another thread!!!
