Blast from the past & Eagle Eye

By Friends & Family, The Web, Thinking, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

I recently had a message on facebook from a old school mate, talk about a blast from the past! It was nice to hear off the person in question, if not a little odd.

This is the thing about facebook, it allows all mannors of people from your past to get in touch with you. Some you would like and some you may not. Now whilst I don’t mind this person getting in touch, I have had others add me as a friend that I’ve chose to ignore. Sometimes you past is your past for a reason.

In other news…David and I went watching Eagle Eye this weekend. It was an action film about two people who were being instructed to do things for an unknown purpose. It was all action. The story line was weak and easily worked out. A film that is worth watching once to say you’ve seen – but not worth buying on DVD.

Tomorrow I am going to see The Feeling, so excited.

Mum, Heroin & Me – C4 Documentary

By Thinking, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

Last night I watched a documentary on Channel 4 called Mum, Heroin & Me. I seen young people and their families effected by substance misuse.

This documentary showed me the young person’s perspective that I was all to aware of. But it also showed in great detail the effect on the family and particularly the mother. When working on young people sometimes we can focus on them and give less focus to the families which also need support. I was reminded of what families go through listening to this particular mothers experiences.

If you want to see the program it is available on watch again at: www.channel4.com.

Have an ace weekend,

Antony

Good & Bad News

By Life, ThinkingNo Comments

In work today I have recieved some good and bad news. The good news is that the post is to be made permanet. The bad news is that legally as I have been in post for less than 12 months, it has to go to advert. Meaning I have to apply for my own job again.

I love my job and value it. I do a good job and so far have managed to exceed some of the aims and objectives on my work plan. I recognise that I am in a good position (having done the post for nearly 12 months). However you do not know who is going to apply for the position and what skills and experience they have got, so I must prepair myself mentally for the worst.

I am pleased that no matter the outcome, the work will continue as I have a true passion for the work that I do.

My plan now is to put all my efforts in to the application form, interview (which will include a presentation) and prove I am once again the best person for the job.

Wish me luck!

Antony
