house

sometime soon i hope to draw a line under the whole house escapades. its been possibly the most stress ive ever encountered over a long period of time. i was told that when the work started in april that it would be finished in june. we're nearly in november and its still not totally finished!

although it's been torture at times im relatively happy with my "new house" although if id known all the hassle i was going to have i would never have went ahead with it.

part of the frustration has been people breaking promises they made to me and going back when theyd had given their word on certain things. i had a concersation with someone the other day and they said it was all my own fault as i was too trusting and shouldve been more hard on the people from the start. to a point i agree but at the end of the day you have to treat people as you would want to be treated yourself and i think ive done that over the last few months, just because one or two people took the piss doesnt mean i wont trust people again when in a similar situation. im sure i'll regret saying that at some stage!

Canada

so i applied for a job in canada recently but for various reasons it wasnt going to work out. it only came up about 2 weeks ago and it actually starts on 1st nov so i wouldve had to go over for an interview and then stay until around christmas if it had of worked out. my boss in simon community is great and supports most of the strange things i come up with but she may have drawn the line at me working 5 days notice instead of my agreed 30!

would have been great if it had of worked out but such is life.

as i was sitting wondering what might have been i had a quick look at the jobfinder in the telegraph and glanced at a job that would involved spending up to 8 weeks at a time in USA, Canada and New Zealand as well as doing work in belfast.

 I wonder.............

only in N17

flippin heck its crazy being a spurs fan!

so our season has been woeful so far and i was sitting thinking about what disaster would await us when we play our next game against bolton and then good old danial levy decides to brighten up my saturday evening,which was boring aside from the joy that is watching the x factor,  by sacking our whole management team!

so goodbye damian, juande, gus and marco - it's been a rollercoaster!

rather strange timing for the whole thing but i respect danial levy for coming out with a statement that addresses the criticism he's received. and fair play for admitting he made a mistake.

onwards and upwards though and we've got harry redknapp in charge which should provide some more ups and downs, im actually feeling quite optimistic tho. then again, im always optimistic about spurs - they say love is blind after all. Im almost glad the canada job didnt work out, i couldnt bear to miss a moment of the madness that usually surrounds my beloved spurs!!!
