Another Week, Another Job

Started a new contract this week, this one will see me through the dead Dec-Feb time in the contracting world over here, so that's good.

Can't really go into specifics of who or what doing (NDA's etc), but it's based in Northampton which is about 25 minutes by train from Rugby.

Decided to take the train because it allows Kim to have the car, and it's fairly painless for me - I work in Central Northampton so parking would be an issue. It also means I have about a 20 minute walk to and from the train station and 10 minutes either way from train station to work. Gotta be good. Except on day 1 with the train it was 45minutes late! Not a great way to start a new job, worrying about being late. Luckily I took the earlier train so just got to work on time.

Northampton itself is a pretty nondescript place from what I can tell.

Nothing much else happening at the moment. We did go to the MPH show in Birmingham a few weeks ago which was awesome. Photos Here

Winter is definitely just around the corner. Was dark today by 4:30 which is a bit of a shock! Not too cold yet and the house has double glazing and central heating so that's all good. Don't know why this isn't more prevalent in NZ to be honest.
