Greetings of peace everyone. It's been 4 months since my last post, plenty of new topics to read to catch up and more stories to share!

With regards to my last post, I was supposed to join HS2 as Quality Engineer on 15 April 2013. However, after our holidays in the Philippines, 13 April I got another offer. Obviously I chose the 2nd company - salary is the same but more benefits + private health care, higher pension share and working at home incentives.

My new office is in East Midland Airport but our projects are located in Cottam, Retford and Pocklington, York. I stayed in the hotel next to National Grid Office for the first 2 months of my employment since Trefor and I were renting a place in Oxford. It was a hard arrangement to be 4 nights a week away from my husband dear but its part of the decision making so no choice but to deal with it.

To sort the weekly travel and nights away dilemma, Trefor bought a house near to my workplace and we moved to Leicestershire on 26 June.

Everybody from Leicester, nearby counties or anyone interested please feel free to come over for drinks and/meal.




On weekdays I'm a Compliance Manager and on weekends I'm working as Labourer and Gardener.
