Fear and Employment in London

I have today accepted an offer of employment with Halo Post Production, working freelance as a Runner for 3 months. It is a relief to have found something so quickly. Not sure what they are working on at the moment but I'm sure I'll soon find out.

Finding out that potato waffles can be cooked in the toaster has proved to be a revelation. Waffles, a bag of salad and some tomato ketchup... Divine. And I love that biscuits are so cheap. Vitamin B is very important for the upkeep of healthy Nestlé profits.

One week

I've managed not to get run over or set on fire in the week I have been living here so that can only be a good thing. Finding a way around the city is getting easier, and the best way really is to learn where places are in terms of landmarks. Applying for as many jobs as I possibly can at the moment, and hopefully something will come up very soon.

The Great Escape

Hello. This is the view from my new bedroom window. This is also the beginning of tube riding, angular haircut acquisition, malnutrition and high-rise living.

I have been in London for 2 days and the weather has decided to be very, very warm. It feels like I have moved to Spain or gone there on holiday. However, this is not a holiday, this is permanent. Now I am here I want to make it work.

This site is intended to be an account of what I am getting up to 250miles away from home, for those of you to read if you are at all interested. Hopefully I'll have something to write about other than hanging around in crack dens drinking strong cider.

Feel free to leave any comments or questions after the posts, I'll reply as soon as I can.
