Xynthia

Xynthia, a violent storm that has battered Western Europe in the last two weeks was removed from my mind until this weekend.

Xynthia has killed 47 in France, and the region that it has devastated most is Vendée. This is where Rachel has holidayed for most of her life. The Ryans own a chalet in Brem sur Mer, and we spent a fortnight with them last August there. It is a beautiful region, that I explored by bike. Looking at the promenade of Les Sables in tatters suggests that 15k up the coast, Brem could not have escaped a similar fate. I hope for the Ryans, that their chalet is ok, and that everyone is safe there, as I really enjoyed my two weeks, and liked everyone I met.

Cumulation of Job Hunt
Written by Brian   
Monday, 22 February 2010

So my job hunt is now complete.
I handed in my notice last Thursday, and today Auto Europe agreed a compromise on my notice.
I will finish at the end of February, and be free then to pursue any opportunities.

Additionally, TBG are delighted that I am available sooner than March 21st, so I will start with them on March 8th.

I have been working at Auto Europe for four & half, which is a sixth of my life. Started at AE in Dublin in the call centre, progressed to internet team and then marketing departing. Before moving with marketing to London when they closed the Dublin office.

I am looking forward to my new challenge with TBG, finally working on the agency side of PPC. Excellent opportunity to expand & broaden my skill base in PPC. They are an excellent company that come highly recommended and I'm eager to get underway.

Well after a few days off work between the two jobs.

Last Sunday, I plucked up the courage to ask Rachel to marry me, and she said yes.
