For those of you who I’ve not grabbed on IRC over the last few days, let me tell you the news. Vikki and I are moving back to Scotland as soon as possible after the baby is born. We’re due into Whipss Cross Hospital for a C-Section this Monday coming (12th July) and all being well I’ll get at least one picture here by lunchtime.<\/p>\n

But yes, back to Scotland. We’ve always considered it, but having two children and being close to family is now something that outweighs what few benefits London offered. And once you make a decision, I’m a believer in acting on it as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

So we’ve pencilled in 14th August for the move back to Edinburgh. We’ve got a house sorted on Gilmerton Road – which is around 10 minutes from VIkki’s Mum and as close to the city centre as we can get without moving into a flat, and still pay reasonable rent.<\/p>\n

Job-wise, I’ll still be doing tech support for POS over a VPN (it was very important that the new house has Broadband, and not just for Vikki on MSN and myself on IRC). There’ll be more money coming in from freelance writing (don’t worry, you’ll still see me on All About Symbian<\/a>) and the other usual places. Any shortfall will be made up with some Agency work.<\/p>\n

It’s all a big adventure. Time to update the CV, find a removals company, and think about pakcing the house up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
