        So you've managed to secure a very poor paying contract in the most expensive part of the UK under a period of massive inflation.

        Well done chap!

        In next weeks episode an experienced and educated person manages to secure a job paying minimum wage.
        You could try reading the post - oh hang on, look who I'm talking to

        The contract is near home, which is in one of the less expensive parts of the UK, and ends up paying the same as if I had the inconvenience of travelling dahn Sarf. Therefore it works out more lucrative, in real terms, than an equivalent gig in London.

        Now, you get back to spelling out the text next to the pretty pictures on the Daily Mail web site. Tip: if you run the blunt end of a pen along under each line it makes it almost as easy to decipher the words as using your finger, but doesn't leave smudges on the screen

          Fair enough.

                      I knew there was something important I had planned

                      I thought it might be the hospital, but when I checked, the cardiac rehabilitation appointment was for the following week so I realised it couldn't be that.
