Loving the job and getting lean!

Hey there! 

The new job is still going well I'm enjoying the challenges it raises and my confidence is growing day by day, week by week
The people are lovely for the most parts, and I'm looking forward to the future with them.

New beginnings in my job has prompted an attempt at new beginnings for health, fitness and weight loss.

I'm currently about 5' 10" and weigh about 16 St  but more importantly I'm nowhere near as fit as I want to be.

Starting today I'm doing H I I T following #thebodycoach channel on YouTube. However easy it looks when u first see it, it certainly isn't the first time you do it. 

Hopefully it's going to get easier !!! 

Tempted to try the 90 day SSS plan with them too.

Fingers crossed things improve weight and fitness wise

Three weeks in...

It's been a while, but I guess I never really thought I'd be able to blog regularly. I really don't think anything of any interest to other people happens to me!,

Anyway, since my last gloat about leaving the DWP, I have got the money in the bank and have left there, never to darken their doors again. Well not for work purposes anyway! 

To be honest I was looking forward to a few weeks off, but I was sent a job description for an IT Manager at a solicitors in Halifax, good money for the role, so thought I'd apply. I was expecting to be using it as an exercise in applying for jobs, and getting used to being rejected again!

Turns out I got the job, so left one job on the Friday, and started the new one on the Monday.

So I'm now the IT Manager for WilkinsonWoodwardBearders Solicitors in Halifax. Quite a small business with approx 86 staff spread over 3 sites.

So far so good, I'm getting back into the swing of actual customer service, and enjoying the challenge of learning, not just the IT stuff, but how things work in the private sector, and I'm looking forward to helping the company move forward with its aims and ambitions. 

That's all for now. I am going to make a concerted effort to get more stuff on here, who knows, someone might find it interesting !!

Cheers
Gareth
