How soon I forget

When I started this blog I had good intentions of posting regularly, to my shame I've let it slip a bit already. Time to make up :)

Unemployment

I had my 6 month interview today with the Job Centre, if your from the UK you will probably know what that means but if not what happens is when you lose your job the government pays you £60 a week to help you out while you find another. This only last for 6 months after that you have to claim another type of the same benefit, it's still £60 but they make you beg for it (joke). Anyway in return for the £60 you have to prove you are actively searching for work. So I had an interview with a very nice young lady who actually to my surprise was very helpful and she is now my case worker. I have to see her once a month so she can assist me to find work. This is OK because she is fit so I'm not complaining.

I went for a job interview last week which went really well, I think I should get a second interview, and as part of the help from the Job Centre I got today they are willing to offer a potential employer a £1000 grant to employ me.

Life

I'm just about healed up after my operation a few weeks ago and I have definite confirmation that all test were negative and no signs of cancer have been found. So I'm very relieved and happy about that.

I'll be a good boy and update whats going on with Poker tomorrow ish.
