Hi Taximan.
You don't have to answer if you don't want but i have read your story from when you had to return to the UK. I just wondered what your ultimate goal is now? I see your are going out for 3 weeks, are you still hoping to save and move back their permanently and would you be looking for similar work as you are doing now?
Good luck with everything.
My ultimate goal is to scrape to gether around 25K, with this I can buy a plot of land and build 4 small apartments, 1 for Roxanne and I and 3 to rent out. Rental is around £50 per MONTH per apartment, but this will give us a 'comfortable' living, and that is ALL I want.

Employee Awards
Wednesday 13th May 2009
You know the sort of thing, Employee of the Month/Year etc; I have to say I have never worked anywhere until now where these sort of things take place, I always felt you go to work, do your job, get paid, and IF someone occassionally comes along and says thank you then thats it.....
The Company I work with have an Employee of the Quarter and an Employee of the Year Award, and each quarter they have 4 smaller awards for things like kissing the bosses arse, or something like that (i dont take much notice), I guess these things are good confidence boosters for the newer, younger members of staff, and the qualifying criteria to achieve one of these awards is you need to have been with the company 6 months.
So I arrive at work last night and there is an envelope awaiting me from HR and on opening this out falls a certificate for Employee Awards 2009 - Quarter One "Always Plays Their Best for the Team" awarded to taximan (well they didnt actually put taximan!!!).
With this is a letter congratulating me and also explaining that it is the 1st time ANY member of a Nights team within the WHOLE group (21 hotels) has ever received any such award, so I guess thats something to be proud of! Also with the award comes a monetary prize of £50, I realise I can only receive such awards if the members of my team are doing their jobs well and there are only 4 of us in total, so as much as £50 is important to me, I have split this money equally between the 4 of us £12.50 each, they have earned it as much as me.
All this on a day when Roxanne and I celebrate 2 years 'together' in soul if not in body.
Still the sun is shining..................

In a non Flushy looking forward to meeting another guy sort of way I'm really looking forward to meeting you at the next blonde bash - I wish I had half your spirit!
Well done on the award, absolute inspiration.

+ the Sun is actually shining now rather than just being a metaphorical thing. Roll on the Summah.
Nice gesture with the dishing out the £12.50s and that. Thumbs up.
