Big news
It seems that my sojourn in Dundee is coming to an end. After two and a half years, I have been offered a job in the Big Smoke - yes I'm going to be moving back to England after 12 years to work in London (baby). I've been looking for a while now, I've not been excited about work for a while, and of course this has nothing to do with the lovely redbrown!
I'm going to be a proper civil servant, so I'm not sure I should reveal exactly what I'll be doing (no, I'm not a spy, see Civil Serf), but I'll be providing policy advice and writing speeches in the Government Department responsible for the UK research budget, the Intellectual Property Office (sounds boring, eh, but wait for it..) and UK SPACE POLICY. How cool is that!
Excitingly (!) the job starts in three weeks. So, I know its short notice, but if anyone fancies joining me I'll be in the Bon Accord next Friday (10th) for a swift half to celebrate. By that point I should be really panicking about everything I have to do before I move, so it should be quite amusing.
On the other hand, if you're not a Weegie, especially if you're anywhere in the south and fancy helping out a confused émigré to re-establish her social life, let me know.
