Yesterday 9.45am I got a leaflet that Greenwich residents can visit HMS ocean. No date given. So I emailed. I got a reply at 3pm saying it was yesterday 3pm-5pm!
I have written a stroppy email. Not that will be bothered.
At least it illicited a few stories from Mrs BP about what she got up to on British Naval ships in Dubai when she was a schoolgirl (17). No seamen jokes please.....Comment

I am sure it is just the internet - but that response sounded quite severe! I am sure it was not meant like that. If it was meant to be severe then the sooner you apply for a gig in London the better. Maybe London is a good option anyway? I know it is cr4p here - but if there is a gig .......Originally posted by norrahe View PostMr N doesn't have a say in it.

I'd rather get work in NL as with doing the weekly commute I can kiss goodbye to any quality of life I have built up in the last 9 months and go back to no life during the week and b*gger all at the weekends.
So you can see I'm really enthused by the fact I'm chasing work elsewhere.
and the possibility of having to fork out for a lot of travel for interviews, my market isn't forward thinking enough to do skpe or phone interviews. 
As a result my will to live has been lost again.Comment
