Got a job!
Whoop!! It's in Swindon - so a bit far away, but don't care... They offered me £16.5k which is a nice increase over what I was on before, pays for fuel easily at least...
So after like 2 months, finally... Massive relief...

Basically my old job, Warehouse Engineer for an events company, so basically, I unload, test, load, repair events kit...
Should mean more chronic boost...

Congrats about the job.
I've heard nothing but bad things about Swindon, but they were all from Oxford residents, I think there's some kinda massive rivalry going on there...

As said earlier, really well done mate Must be a big relief!
Now get on and sort the suspension on the '6 out before chasing big boost on the dt! You need to have a fun '2nd car' whilst your building the DT up

Well done buddy
What you need is a nice, big, comfy 406 Executive TD for cruising up and down the motorway with leather and AC, with a veggie burning XUD under the bonnet. Then you can go f*cking mental on the 306
