Bought myself a 2nd hand QUAD 606 MK 2 recently , am using it with a pair of impulse H7 horn speakers , very happy indeed.
Next year i shall be looking to upgrade the CD player and will be considering NAIM’s various models , if you have one let me know what you think of it,and which model it is.
Ta in advance.
Detailed, fast, musical. Considering upgrade to CDX2.2 as soon as Tomtom Audio can provide a “pre-loved” model. Only way I can afford NAIM, but I wouldn’t consider anything else anyway… 😉
Been promoted and increase in pay. Mrs Monkeysfeet has gone over to a competitor in her line of work, again more pay. Plus she was escorted off the premises of her old job as she is going to a competitor, so she works her notice on gardening leave. The only problem is she is now finding jobs for me to do around the house 😕
I’m in the same club as weeksy, which is a huge relief because we will soon have the money to finish building our next house.
Well, at least enough to make it inhabitable whilst we finish it. That may take a little longer…
Pay rise here! 5%, but it’s been a while. 2015 sees me as show manager for Bespoked, running site office for mayhem and another pat event, plus my very own first event. Can’t wait!
Finally got the job offer I’ve been waiting for with the right terms meaning I’m not losing money. Maybe I’ll get a decent night’s sleep tonight, that’d be a bonus!
I’m thoroughly fed up with most aspects of life, but a colleague who is better qualified than me has just been offered the chance to move onward and upward and it couldn’t happen to a nicer guy, so kind of second hand GOOD news.
Going to Spain on Saturday for a few days with my Dad. New company car delivered today – unexpected upgrade. Had my offer accepted on a new house (Weeksy, are we buying your house?)
Christmas bonus was confirmed today – 12.8% of my gross salary ;o)
will be taking my two little girls on a surprise trip to Disney at Christmas as a result.
The only island in a sea of piss is that I have sold (subject to contract etc.) my late Mum’s house, though will be sad to see it go as I grew up there and it will end my last remaining connection to Yorkshire. Apart from that work (self-employed) has dried up due to government / local government funding cuts, my love life is at a fairly low point, and I’m still getting over my Mum’s death.
Not had any good news as such but any morning that I wake up and can wiggle my toes and wipe my own arse will set me up for a good day, no matter what else happens throughout the day it doesn’t matter as I remind myself that worries are superficial and mean nothing compared to having my health and being mobile. 😉
