New Year, New Desk


¡Hola! (Mel B stylee)

Well, I've only got 5 more weeks in the crazy world of Spain - how quickly
time passes!!! lol I've been moved to another office now, and there's 5
people to talk to, and they're really nice. I sit infront of Carmen and we
all just bitch about the boss all day!! He's like Rickey Gervais in The
Office, totally random, but we all get a laugh out of it!!

So yes, New Year, New Desk (well, I say new...). There's evenmore 80's
retro office furniture! I've now got a typewriter (!) and one of those big
early nineties printing calculators, as well as my PC. Honestly, it's
definately a timewarp! I'm looking forward to going to Lisbon. I think I've
found somewhere to live; I'm just waiting for the guy to send me some
photos of the place, and if all is well, I'll go with him. It's in Almada,
which is on the other side of the river. He says the easiest way into
Lisbon is by ferry!! Me think's I'll end up falling overboard when tipsy!!
Good job I can swim!

So, I'm really looking forward to Lisbon, and I hope it'll be much better
than Castellón. I think it will be. There's many a gay bar there (you know
how we gays are with our bars!) and it looks like a really beautiful city.
My uni's a trek out in Carnide, but it's not going to be the end of the
world! It's on the metro line, and there's one every 3 minutes at rush
hour, so there'll be no Metrolink-esque waiting shenanigans like back home.
I'm looking forward to all the food the cheap spirits (they don't use
measures - they just guess!!), and of course the beach when summer comes
round again! I'm staying there until the middle of August so I can top the
tan up, and make everyone jealous when I come back to ye olde Lowry! lol It
can be like my very own little summer holiday!

I´m looking forward to going around Portugal, and I believe it'll be easier
as I'm in the capital and there's a fair few trains to the other regions.
Mark's helping me move, so that should go fine. We're going on the
trenhotel, so all should be well.

Well, ta-ra for now,

I'll post again sometime soon!
