Lunch

Lunch is the most important meal of the day! Well maybe not but if you like a sandwich, like I do, it's possibly the most enjoyable. So here are my fav sandwich shops in Glasgow:

1. Where the Monkey Sleeps;
2. MYO;
3. ItaliaMania;
4. M&S;

My goal for the remainder of this year is to stretch this list to 10 and get M&S out of the top 5, at least.

The last day and the week before the first day.

So that's it, I've written my last line of code for the government (never say never of course).

I had a great night out with the folks at the old place, drank plenty of beer and danced till about 3 or 4 in the morning. Many thanks to all that could make it. For those that couldn't, I'm sure there will be many other opportunities in the coming months to share a drink or two. Special thanks to Johno who made the trip up from Manchester for the occasion, to Kenny for taking loads of great pics and to Monica and Michael for getting me in a taxi home. Thanks also to Niall for the leaving speech, I really appreciate all the nice things you said.

During the last week, between jobs, I've had a gas with Jules and the kids and have managed to get a few jobs done around the house. It's been really nice spending this time with the Tom and Maisie, they really are coming along a treat. It's also helped me appreciate even more what a great job Jules does.

Jules and I also managed to get a night out alone (kid free) together and took a trip down memory lane. My big bro's band, that we used to watch at every opportunity back in the 90's, played at a friends 40th. It was great to see them up there again, tight as as usual.
