This ship is sailing

professionally that is. Yes the time has come to make public what I think most of you already know......

I am leaving Merrett & Co - hurray!!!!

I have a new job with ...... Mendip District Council who are happy to let me work part-time and hopefully won't see me as some kind of administrative burden who should be bled for every penny that can be made out of me.

Dont get me wrong I am very grateful to Tracey for giving me the opportunity to qualify and to become a good local authority lawyer but to carry on working in that climate, feeling the way I did - not good.

I have a 12 week notice period so nothing will be happening that quickly - but here's to 2008 :-)

Its finally here

Yes after much debating, heartache and the rest, we have a full sized second bedroom. The builders have been in and look what they left us with
But then they came back and plastered it and gave us some new doors. This is the result ---->

(and Dan showing off his "partywear" for his first children's party yesterday!)

Anyone like to come and redecorate for us? ;-)
And of course we need a new carpet!!
And these are the new bedroom doors. There are new doors downstairs too but I don't seem to have photographed those yet!
