Jazzy D is Happy
Well folks,i got up early today to catch the 7.24 am bus to Maidstone and then over to Medway via the 101 bus. This was to make sure i got to this evil mandatory job slavery shit on time. As it turned out , on a gloriously warm sunny day, it was due to done outside. All the other geezers who turned up looked the part, and i was overdressed. They were all labourers, builders and ex-roofers.
So i kicked up fuss with the "placement officer", and on the hoof, making up some excuse that i cannot work outside, she promptly told me to go home, paid me for my fares, and thus told me to wait for a new letter to come in the week, for a placement in my local area of Sittingbourne. Result!
Oh and the job , is repairing bikes, so i could get a trade out of this which i can make some money out of, esp. as Colin, a few doors away, who did the London to Brighton bike ride, and has a mega bike now, might need some expertise, if i do good out of it.
So i had the rest of the day available to do what i would like, so i promptly phoned Market Force to move my Rochester 'Spoons visit from Thursday to today. I also perused the charity shops in Chatham and Rochester.
I had a lovely juicy sirloin steak done medium rare with peas and chips washed down with an ale , Cotleigh Uncle Sam (4.2 % ABV), and a coffee to finish with.
I took some pictures of my visit to Chatham, which i shall put up later. But the real bonus is that i can visit Sussex tomorrow and do my gig tomorrow night! at the Northern Lights! Jazzy D is back in action again!
I ended up in Sittingbourne, and had a pint and a half of the exquisite and complex Wicked Weed Freak of Nature beer (7.5 % ABV) from the USA at £2.25 a pint, and yet i paid a £1.90 for a half in the Faversham 'Spoons! I know, it is weird!
So in the end, i am a happy bunny, plus i received my React money two days earlier than expected. WOOT WOOT!
