Daisy and I went for a walk this evening. We didn’t plan on going far just somewhere to keep the pulse up a little and burn off some fat. There are some nice houses that have been built by Dallington park and I thought it would be nice to give them a look over.

We walked down the road and found out it went on further than I had anticipated and what we discovered there kind of blew our minds. There is Dallington House for a start, a huge mansion with stable blocks and all the other things a huge house has. Then we found ourselves in Dallington Village. I didn’t even know there was one but here it was on our own doorstep a village dating back in places some 400 years. There was a lovely little pub (The Wheat Sheaf) with a beer garden opposite a 400 year old church with old houses all over the place and a babbling brook running through it. All this village bliss in the heart of Northampton and just 2 miles from the town centre. Should I win Euro Millions this weekend I so know where we are moving to!

Been moderately eventful today except for a lot of not really happening stuff such as the zero calls for the car.

Both John and Matt have been job hunting today. Matt needs to bump up his hours to full time whilst John needs to bump up his ours to ‘at all’. As Mr Sod would have it, they have both been called in for interview by BHS for the same job. Well, not exactly the same job but more a case of two part time jobs. One will suit Matt and allow him to do a morning for BHS and then Tesco in the evening. The other will be later in the day and better for John but ideally, Matt would have preferred both part time jobs to run together so he could ditch Tesco. As it is quite possible neither of them will get the job this is probably a non starter but one thing crossed my mind. If they give the job to Matt with zero retail qualifications and not to John with an NVQ level 2 in retail … do we sue for breach of disability discrimination laws? An interesting question but not one I shall lose any sleep over!
