27 April 2011

Mum, Emily and I went to Hereford yet again. This time it was for my eye test and contact lens assessment. While I was at the opticians for an hour or more, Mum stayed with Emily at Play Planet. This was the first visit to a wonderful play centre near the city centre. It has a large soft play area, plus a well-stocked outdoor yard and a great cafe, which has actually thought its menu out really well, having a good adults' menu and a wide selection of healthy and not-so-healthy choices for the children. We shall be going there again, definitely. End of gushing advert! Hope we can find some similar places in London.


The weather is holding up sunny, though the air temperature has dropped a fair bit. We are still eating our meals outside, anyway.

Nick is still keen on the job with CM and sent an email to the guy who interviewed him, asking bluntly what sort of salary they could offer, and also how quickly they wanted to fill the post. The amount they mentioned was not bad, though about 15% less than his CS salary, and they are also willing to wait some time for the right candidate. He is very concerned about the stability of the whole Japan operation and wondering if he will be made redundant, or that he won't find his level in the new role and be unhappy. I just want him to work sensible hours and to be interested and comfortable with what he is doing to earn a crust. We are hardly going to be paupers!
