i put up the Christmas tree last night, and it's finally put me in the festive mood. It's taken a while, but then that's probably because i work in retail and for me Christmas started in august when we got our first delivery of Christmas stock.
I'm actually really looking forward to Christmas now, and not just because of presents! Mostly i enjoy it because...

I was recently promoted to manager of one of the other stores on our district. to start with i was happy about this and was feeling up for the challenge. However, as time went on i found it too much of a challenge....

Hey dude! I plan to be in your area for part of the festive season.
Had an amazing weekend!
Two of my friends, martin and Tracy, got married on Saturday. Normally i don't enjoy weddings, but i was best man at this one so was a lot more involved than i normally am. On the friday night a group of us including me, martin, dave (martins brother), andrew and some of martin and tracy's family went out in Ross for...

So my first week at my new store hasn't been the easiest.
The first week was a bit odd, as my assistant manager was on holiday for three days. so i was kinda thrown into the deep end at a new store with no real support in store. This week we've had a supervisor decide she doesn't want to be a supervisor any more, and...

thanks for the birthday wishes. 
I hate goodbyes 
After five years as assistant manager at my store i've been moved to another store. My district manager came into my store last friday to tell me that from this wednesday i'd be assistant manager at a new store. As you can imagine i was a little upset (i spent most of friday in floods of tears!), especially as i wouldn't get...

awww. i'm sorry that it was stressful. well i'm glad i could perk you up a bit.
I feel like a complete and utter arsehole
Now allow me to elaborate. My closest friend has been going out with the same girl, on and off, for nearly ten years. In those ten years me and his girlfriend have become close friends too. In the time they've been together my friend has cheated on his girlfriend on a few occasions (hence the "on and...

I'm sorry you're having such a dilemma. I wish I could offer some advice but because they're both your friends, it's one of those things where you kind of have to stay out of it I guess.
Sorry, for not being much help. But yeah, it's good to get it off your chest at least, like you said.

Today i went kayaking with some friends.
After our great time canoeing last week we thought we'd try our hands at kayaking. It didn't go well! when we got into the water we spent most of our time going round i circles because the kayaks were so hard to manoeuvre. Then i rolled the kayak and couldn't get my legs out. So there i was...

Love kayaking, loads of fun. Good rowing exercise too!
Today has been a good day!
Me and three friends went canoeing down the river Wye. The last few days we've had nothing but rain, so i was half expecting it to be pissing down when we set off today. However i woke up this morning to beautiful sunshine, which stayed with us the whole time we were on the river. We were on the...

Thank you for your comment.
I have a week off!!!
It's so nice to not have to worry about work for a whole week! Especially as work hasn't exactly been enjoyable recently (not that working in retail is ever that enjoyable.). There's a bloke at work who has always been a bit of a moaner, but recently he's gotten a lot worse. Some of it has to do with the...
