Notes to Self.
Jul. 27th, 2005 09:51 am1. Working in the city centre is Great. Averaging 2 DB9 and 2 Bentley spottings a week.
2. re (1): When ogling Nice Cars, make sure you either stop, or check there are no lamp posts / dustbins / bus shelters in your path.
3. Joking aside (yes, I mean you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
minspi), Starbucks do not sell beagles, fruity or otherwise. You will get strange looks if you ask for one.
4. LJ isn't blocked from work. This isn't a problem now, when retraining and remembering just how much tax law there is, but it could become an issue in a few weeks. Also, paying attention to NSFW warnings might be wise.

"Day 9" of the big Get Jenny Back to Work plan, and I'm still not sick of it. This bodes well :) Mind you, I'm only up to 5 hours a day for the 3 days I'm in the office, and a 15 hour week isn't exactly onerous.
Retraining is going very well (all online lectures with examples) and I got 92% in my anti Money Laundering exam (woo!). Unfortunately, they don't teach us *how* to launder money beyond a very vague outline (something to do with layering herds of pedigree cows), but I certainly know what to do if I suspect it now. So behave.
Nearly bought a new car at the weekend (S reg Mazda 323f) but there's a slight - problem - with the mileage. The clock reads 65k, but the DVLA have 78k registered from February this year... Might get it anyway (with an approprate discount), since it can't have gone *too* far in 5 months, and the engine still runs beautifully.
Anyway, back to "work". It's changes in company ownership, reconstructions & close company provisions today. Lucky me.
