Luck of the (French-)Irish

Hello one and all!

You are all right, an update is long overdue! You must all be wondering what’s wrong with Ol’ Bourgui that he can’t find 3 minutes to post up a little something to his friends.
Well, the truth is life has been good, and thrown so many things at me that I got too lazy to type a few words. Lame I know, so a big ‘Sorry’ to all you guys.

Now let me move on to what’s been good. In fact it all came with that job I finally got a couple of months ago. Now that I have some cash I am actually able to do stuff, on top of the things I was already doing before.
The last few weeks have hence consisted of a lot of gaming, training (I’m back doing taekwondo after seriously hesitating with muay thai), enjoying the beautiful spring weather, indulging in the playoffs season…etc. Good times all round.

And as if this good fortune wasn’t enough, I have more great news: ok that may not be news to any of you, but Natalie has come back and we’re going to be moving in in the coming 2-3 weeks! Needless to say this has me a tiny bit excited and puppy-like happy.
In other developments I will be quitting my job in 2 weeks. For another one. You see currently I am only filling in for a lady who is seriously sick; while there are some good chances she will never be able to come back, the folks here are - rightly - not ready to give me a permanent position. In the same time, the director here has left for another, small, company and wanted to take me onboard. To keep it simple for this blog, there are a few risks in there but I decided to take my chances and give it a go.

All in all things are looking decidedly positive, reunited with my girl and life in the right tracks, not to mention I’m still over the moon with this country.
So forgive my long silence and spare a smile for Nico’s riches. I haven't been this happy in a while!
