An Update from a Market Town

Hello!
I'm in Howden Library!
Really!
Just to tell anyone who may still read this that:
YES: I'm still alive
YES: I am a member of a library and
NO: I've not had a bath this morning (I think the woman sat next to me can tell)
Just a not to say I'm settling in OK. Happy in the house despite a lack of central heating and happy at work, getting used to my job at long last. There's a whole load of writing, filing, writing, filing, subbing (that means getting your work checked, normal people) and more writing. It's good. I work on the TV Database that is used to write the TV listings for essentially all the TV schedules you see in your humble magazines and newspapers. I currently work with a small staff writing all the info you get in your TV mags on, in particular, the BBC channels, five, C4 and more4 for Tuesdays. I also do a little Radio 4 occasionally.
It's pretty cool writing up all the press in advance. We're currently writing up week 50 of this year (my day is Tuesday 12th December) and are working ahead of schedule in the run-up to Xmas!
So yeah, it's keeping me occupied.
In my spare time I've had the pleasure of seeing Ben 'from Goole' a couple of times and Paddy, who many will remember as Vicki's mate from home. I'm also enjoying the delights of PES 6, having finally cracked my Master League (with the crap players!).
So I'm cool. Hope everyone is well and I love you all!
