I really should up date this more often I have had a busy August and September with holidays and a couple of gigs along with continuing to establish myself in my new job.
Its not been the easiest time at work with some restructuring and a lot of investment in new equipment but its exciting and challenging and after 6 months I am still enjoying my new job. I still have loads to do and many hills to climb but the nature of life and work that will always be the case.
I had my first break from work at the end of August we went away for a week to New Quay in West Wales. What a beautiful part of the world that is. We were lucky to have an apartment over looking the harbour, sitting on the balcony each morning watching the dolphins at play was a great way to relax. Managed a few days out exploring the area and the weather was pretty good too.
September saw two great gigs The Damned were first up making there debut in Crewe, the shortest distance I think I have ever travelled to a Damned gig. As always it was an excellent show met up with drummer Pinch and had a long chat about his new drum kit and life in general. Nick my next door neighbour came along for his first Damned gig and he seemed to enjoy it a lot I think it was a little bit of a culture shock for him though! The second gig was in Nottingham, my first visit to Rock City to see the Misfits. Again an excellent gig enjoyed support band Drongos For Europe and the Misfits played a full set of classics laced with a certain amount of menace!
I have put photos up on my flickr of the gigs and some holiday snaps
October & November are shaping up well I've got SLF in Crewe on the 10th of October and The Sex Pistols at the MEN on November 17th celebrating 30 years since Never Mind The Bollocks!
