I got the Web Publishing Assistant job at MISD!

This is all "subject to paperwork" but they've already got my references so hopefully nothing can go wrong now. They want me to start on Feb 2nd -- a week on Monday! Salary will be £19,365 (bottom of the payscale, but compared to previous salary -- let alone current salary -- it's v good).

I will be in the Carlton tonight, celebrating. Hope to see lots of people there. :)

Nice one. And hopefully if you are starting on the bottom of the payscale that means your pay is quite likely to go up as you get into the job.

Yay! Go you!

And of course I won't be there to have a drink with you, sorry. :)

Hopefully yes. Especially since they will hopefully train me to do more l33t things too. 8-)

& I was only really expecting Cambridge ppl to turn up to the Carlton tonight. :) Though it'd be lovely to see you if you ever are in this neck of the woods, or indeed if I'm ever in the Other Place...

How about if we are both down in london celebrating something phenomenally geeky with other geeky people who have e-mail addresses as cool as ours?

*goes to remind himself of the exact date that is happening*

I don't think I can make the meet I'm afraid. :-/ Sorry!

That's a shame. I didn't realise having not really checked the wiki. However, having said that I do now recall you giving apologies due to work or something... :(

Oh well, next time... I'll have a drink for you or something. :) And you know we'll be remembering you in the usual "absent friends" toast. :)
