Polyps and parties


Hiya folks - Well, well, well - everything still manic in Marks media land.. Life in the last fortnight has included Alan's surprise 30th - me going to hospital to have polyps removed and a new work camera.

The one good/bad thing about going to Warrington Hospital last weekend to have the small op on my nose -meant I can't do any physical exercise for 10 days afterwards...

So I have been getting up to do my medication and then having a 'what do I do next' moment before work.. But since Martyn's accident I have been getting in early anyway to man the office...

There has been loads to promote at the moment - there is a new Lottery grant to display artifacts, loads of 'yooof' stuff, an olympic medalist joining the Council...etc etc.. Am puttng out about three releases a day at the moment and getting more and more regional coverage...

I have my job evaluation coming up next month - where I am appealing against a proposed pay cut.. It is very annoying when you see how much some of poeple get paid - and they want to REDUCE my pay - despite the long hours and hard work I put in...

It is lucky I enjoy the job and the people I work with eh?

I have been promoting a new community choir in Halton - set up by the gorgeous Grethe and Kaya.. Check out www.myspace.com/gretavisions... They are amazing people!

(And probably a lot better with my new camera than I am!)

Well it promises t be an eventful few days with Frank's stag do AND my new home - yep, I signed my life over and exchanged contracts officially today..

I could still be in there for my bday on October 23.... Wish me luck bloggettes....
