Hmmmm... my first post in 2008 is my first blog in about three months.
Sorry to be so tardy (As if anyone cared!), but glad to see others have been writing in the blog while I've been ignoring it!
I'm waiting to hear about my redundancy claim from the Beeb. The closing date for applications was 23rd Jan, and now I think it will be three weeks or so before I find out whether I've ben successful... I hope to God and all his pals that I get the boot. Hurrah. If all goes according to plan I'll leave the Corporation at the end of May or June. I'll keep you posted.
I've started the second module in my Open University course today - my life is no longer my own... slog my guts out at work then come home and log opn to slug my guts out there. (Actually that would make a difference from the first module when I hardly did any work for days on end and then had to work 22hour days for about 10 days in a row - and just before Xmas, too!)
Saw Nicky Tam out with his work mates last night - that was some experience. I was staggering home after 2 hours boozing comparing his management style to that I've experienced in the BBC and come to the conclusion the Beeb needs to be more robust. Honestly, if Nick gets away with that - then me and my colleagues are a bunch of fu**in pansies.
So, better get back to my studies.
It's good to be posting again
