Thursday started quietly on the job hunting front then got busier as the day progressed. Inbound calls from agencies, then writing covering letters to accompany job applications following up email notices of roles posted on various job boards and closing with a flurry of emails and phone calls.
And so it was againt today, nothing much before mid-day then madness for most of the afternoon. Since returning from Lanzarote I must have spoken to around 20 agency personnel and the general impression I get is that the jobs are out there but things are moving slowly as we start the school holiday season (commonly known as the silly season).
To cheer me up Suzie treated me to a visit to the cinema, the new one up in the top of the Westfield Centre in Derby. Nice and comfortable it is too, so unlike the old flea pits of my youth with plenty of leg room (though the people behind us still managed to tap their way through the film on the back of our seats). Overall, a real tonic and a great pick me up. We'd seen the show in Las Vegas in 2006, seen the documentary about the making of the film, then here we were watching the film in comfort. If you like big name stars, an easy to follow, loose and easy plot/story line and loads of ABBA music then treat yourself to a couple of hours in the cinema. We will certainly be getting the DVD when it comes out.
