giggle, I've just remebered that time after I'd walked off that I came back unexpected and unannounced and we made pretend that Simon was the only person who could see me

:)

The whole thing is a bit surreal really....just like then...

What makes you think you're not a figment of my imagination?

and what makes me think they're not even going to offer me my job back this time......

oh yeah, 4 days of no phone calls. Pah, I should have known better, they didn't pay me for the last time.....

I should have taken things as less of an omen...I had thought the job was def. mine espcially after accidently ripping a hole in my somewhat thinning 10 yr old curacao bath towel not 5 mins before the first call. I guess all the juju is now gone :(

and sod couriering in this weather (not that point 2 point are even there any more , cos they're not :(

Commiserations Dave. I hope a contract comes your way soon.

Looks like I'll be an ex-contractor myself come the end of the month.

:bu:

having said that the phones gone mad today, but I'm thinking of giving up to go fulltime bike riding with these people....check out the demo, very very cool, wish I'd thought of that.......

Now that *is* impressive.

Full time summer I could handle (I did, for a summer) but winter... not me mate.

Good luck if you do, though.

:bu:

indeed, cool military-spec gps tracking, and from the riders point of view, no pissing about with radios/phones, just a touch screen pda which I guess can be bar mounted.....

and summer is coming (which means less jobs as more people do it)
not that bad weather really bothers me (I was out in the snow yesterday and the day before)

PS when you coming round, got some stuff for ya, some stories to tell that aren't printable :) and a surprise, who knows I might even find a fiver to sponsor you with...BTW how's that going ?

Duh, silly billy, that's becuase they've moved to a new building across town, which is listed in the phone book (which I only unwrapped today)......the old technologies are the best ;-p

Right, I'm off to get a job, i hope.....

Success, they remembered me and gave me the job back on the spot.

Strange, but I've never been called a 'professional motorcylce rider' before, but I was by none other than Colin Schiller himself (founder of Fast Bikes magazine and co-founder of Point 2 Point)

I feel right chuffed; Ok so I'm not Rossi, but I'm 'in the club' so to speak :)

I start monday. Phew.

not 5 mins later the agent that offered me the curacao job (and then failed to phone back) phoned back about another job, no mention of the cucracao one, needless to say my spleeen is now fully vented :)

not this time, i'm based over at the staines office.

I'm their only biker,well, english speaking biker, they have 2 one who doesn't speak english (can't imagine how he gets the job done) and one who is off the road atm. So I could be on to a [delboy speak]nice little earner[db speak] for a change :)

So it'll be sat in an industrial estate by thorpe park until...
