I'm afraid not. However, my colleague might well be able to give you a bit of advice on how to get along in Liverpool.smiley - smiley He's a Scouser. And he's most affable. Most of the time.smiley - winkeye Why don't you visit him over at U292?

Cheers, Sammy m'boy/girl. I've dropped him a line.

How did you get the job with Auntie? I ask really because a friend of mine (a real friend, not a euphemism for myself) is desperate to break into the world of media. He has a degree in the subject and is, presently without success, applying for all manner of journo/media jobs. I on the other hand am happy in my job, which is why I'm leaving in three days...

Quite simply, the BBC took us over. I never actually applied to work here! We were originally part of the Digital Village and when that started to hit the rocks old Auntie took us under her wing.

I get you. I understand that you are a man, now, so sorry for the confusion before.

By the way I'm not sayng that you weren't a man, and now you are, rather that I wasn't sure, and now I am smiley - smiley

Ho hum! I'm beginning to settle in here now, but I still don't get any messages on my space. I wonder why...? Maybe when I'm the wrong side of the Pennines, things will look brighter. Actually no, it never stops bleedin raining over there!
