Interesting day. Great article in the UK Daily Mail about gastric reduction operations curing around 75% of operee's of diabetes. Now I know it's a bit drastic, but it is good news. Now all the clever guys have got to do is work out what the trigger is.

Signing on day to day. A new experience for me - never been unemployed before, so have to see if I can't add this new knowledge into a future book. Not surprised, but pleased, the people at the job centre have the patience of saints. I am sure that they really don't get paid enough for the things that they have to put up with, every working day, week in, week out. I take my hat off to them.

Had my first Job Application rejection today - yes this was good. I know I am going to get rejections, and I would rather they were for jobs that I really wasn't worried about, as in this case.

Heard today that my new car, Citroen Grand Picasso has been shipped and will be in England tomorrow. Should be able to pick it up on Monday or Tuesday - I will be mobile again - yeah ha! (Old car sold Subj to Finance last week)
