Living in Maidstone & My New Job
So I have settled in really well in Maidstone, Kent.
I have managed to find myself a really cool job, with some steady hours. I am finally starting to earn enough money that i have some left over at the end of the week, which is great!
I am working in a really neat lounge bar which specialises in cocktails, I have plenty to learn working there, but i'm getting there slowly. With every shift that i do i am learning more and more about bar tending, much more then i could have ever been able to learn while i was working at the Jetty Bar in Adelaide.
It is a real challenge for me at the moment, as i am well out of my comfort zone, and i have about 60 new cocktails to learn in the next couple of weeks. But i will get there.
Bar Chocolate's staff are really great and have done well to welcome me and make me feel really comfortable working with them, and now that i am working, i have been able to start making some new friends around the town, which is a huge bonus.
As for the Flat, it's coming together really nicely, we now have Sky hooked up through the house, so we have an unlimited broadband set-up as well as Sky TV, meaning i can sit home all weekend and watch the football. I really do enjoy it here. The only downside is that it gets so cold outside at night when i'm walking home from work, it ducked under zero the other night, and the worst thing about all this..... its going to get much much worse. But, if the weather is the only thing that i have to complain about, there really isn't too much of a problem.
