    Learning another anguage

    Italian was my first choice, It just sounds good. But I just thought If I tried German, it would open up a lot more opportunities, because it's the second mostly widely used language in Europe. Also I've just downloaded a German language course.

    Have you been apprearing for any interviews?

    I keep getting these calls, got 2 this morning, about 5 yesterday and some the day before that. When they first started phoning I was well chuffed, I thought I would have a new contract in no time, but then I realised that they were just fishing for info. Now I've just stopped answering them.
