I'm sad to say I'm leaving.... won't even make it to a final pub meet frown

My job is moving me to Kidderminster! I'm starting on Monday - it's all a little sudden. I'm living in a hotel until I get myself a little house down there, so visitors are very welcome!

I'll be back for the Christmas do though smile

So, does anyone know anything about the area? Promise I won't come back with a brummy accent! hehe

yes I also had a job that moved me there, although I opted to live in Worcester instead of 'Kiddy'. I was there for 7 years, had a great time. You may find Kidderminster a little quiet, however I've been away for 5 years, so it could've changed. Birmingham is great for shopping, eating and pretty much everything, other than the accent. However, it's expensive to live and commute from there. For me, Worcester was the ideal compromise.

So, are you going to Kidderminster to make sugar or design carpets?

Aww Anna, we'll really miss you. You brightened the place up no end.
The very best of luck with your move and I hope the new post proves considerably more interesting and challenging.
See you in December, if not before!

China was nothing to do with work though, just something I wanted to do...

Until I changed jobs a month ago I worked in steel stockholding for most of my working life. Who do you work for?

Any suggestions for "conversational Chinese" courses? I'll be going out there about 5 times a year with the new job! smile

I am indeed going to BTaP, so I shall see most of you there. Just found the perfect shoes today as well, it's all coming together nicely.

I think if I choose my time right it won't take too long to get back at all. I won't be a stranger!


I work for ASD metal services at the mo, they have branches all over, so Kidderminster might just be one stop of many?
