I am tempted to say it could be worse. I could be Scottish. However that would be a lie. All the Scots are great. Except the ones who go abroad....

I hope you will make an honest effort to integrate with the locals. Good luck and don't forget that your contract has a notice period and the length of the contract and all the sweet things you've been told mean nothing.
Wales has lots of local sheep.

It's about having a expensive quality car of you own choosing.
But mostly... It's about not having to deal with the bollox of being stigmatised with a grade.

Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostIt has taken about 3 months since I was first approached, however I have picked up a nice gig in London. 1 year. Small team, small company. Nice rate. Strong growth prospects.
I will be sad to leave permiedom and North Wales.
Mrs BP is even talking about moving down to London with me....
The Mrs BP thing? Not so sure. London has lots of very expensive handbags..
