My last day wasn't that bad after all - I gave myself a hard task to complete and managed it - so that put a smile on someones face, a few nice parting words were said to me, and a nice phone call was received!
Happy Christmas and New Year!
Dan :)

And so it begins the final chapter of life at Databiz (ODS). I'm heading in late today as I was up at the crack of dawn yesterday. I was creating a DVD that was going to be hand delivered by one of the Oxford crew on ODS's lear jet *cough* "easy jet" from kidlington airport! Not really but it was going on a plane - until we found out, much to my disappointment that it didn't need to travel up north and could go to the clients London office, which is what I initially suggested on Friday!
I'm doing a hannover *cough* I mean hand-over today, I'm going to try my absolute best to dilute 8 years of experience and knowledge into half-a-day haha yeh right, I might see if I can get some extra wonga out of it, by offering a consultancy fee!
Just had a call from the lovely Lesley in Oxford about what has been the bain of my life at Databiz, Redemptorist Publications - I so wish I never offered to help Si out with that project - its like (God's) way of telling me to believe or be punished. I'd rather get punished any day, than worship something that I cannot see.
What ever happened to MC Hammer wot a tune, I am listening to my mix of leaving work tunes, looking forward to 5:30 when I play out with "Europe - The Final Countdown".

The smelly man is on the train again, and there is a spare seat next to me - I might have to pretend I've gone mad and start talking to the empty space - he might respect that as he sees invisible people and holds conversations with them on the train!
The carriage where he is, is absolutely rammed full of people - I wonder how long it will be until people start moving into this carriage!
I'm looking forward to an ice cold beer when I get in!

Faster than light travel... Well not quite but Mr. Branson does put on a good spread - just finished my afternoon tea on my Journey South from the North West of Preston.
The joys of proper work will be resting on my shoulders tomorrow - but it will only be for four days and then I'm finished - the sad thing is that I have to leave my precious behind (powerbook) however I'm told that I will receive something better a nice new technicolor dreamcoat - which will be fun, complete wth bells and whistles! (Gadgets my dear Watson Gadgets)
Just leaving Crewe next stop Rugby.
Adios amigos I'm sure we'll meet again very soon!

Is what my work colleague Noel spouted in the office today, a little mouse ran down his leg - no doubt look for a new abode!
It was diddy and brown, Noel reckons there is a nest of mice behind his desk - don't think they have nests do they?
I think it was Danger Mouse as it was sitting on the AC power supply to Noel's computer... Penfold where art thou!

With the potential cull of staff taking place at work, I have finally found new work and refuse to board a sinking ship for the second time, already done that and walked the plank first!
Looking forward to my new position and all its challanges that lie ahead!
So I finish on 21st December and start a fresh sometime in January!
Happy days!
