I went to a recruitment agency open-day this morning. Go me! I haven't got an instant job, but they reckon to get something within the week. Hurrah! Well, hurrah for the money, boo hiss for the having to go to bed before the dawn light. Bum clouds!

On the tests I got 3 mistakes in 5 minutes typing, which isn't that bad, and 27/30 on the computing knowledge one. It was mostly 'what do these initials stand for', easy stuff, but a couple of admin software ones which I was stumped by.

Having left the agency I spotted the SALE sign in ART and went in for a browse. I emerged with a rather fine framed picture of Clint Eastwood in the graveyard in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly for a mere £15:

I then went into Argos and bought a new set of weights to add to my set(also for £15), since I've reached the limits of my current weights, split between the main bar and the hand ones, and I can't be arsed to chop and change them every night. Unfortunately they've changed to silver ones now, but pfft, I'm not much of an aestheticist. Besides, maybe gold and silver are a fashionable pairing?!
