    Delayed

    I want to go back to Canada to continue my gig but the firm has deferred me until its annual budget review is completed.

    This is not actually a contract - more of a semi-perm role.

    They are paying the rent on my apartment but the lease is up end of the month.

    This is not looking good!

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

      Oxford is ok but Vancouver is a million times better.

            There is that. Good pubs too! Off to the Turf Tavern this afternoon with my nephew to sample several spectacular ales.

              End of next week supposedly, but even that isn't certain.

              They have an office in Dublin so I may get reassigned there. I think it is staffed by a typist and a cat.

                    She sounds very nice on the phone.

                    I was planning on taking flying lessons in the summer too. The chaps I work with jointly own a float plane - it's amazing. I will be soooo pissed off.
