lazio

DSL is still down :-( The pricks at BT don't seem to have their shit together enough to actually be able to FIX problems... but they can make them easily enough. I was going to work on the new photos page tonight, but for some reason the Cabernet-Shiraz we had with dinner has gone straight to my head. Guess that third glass was a good idea ;-)
I saw something completely disgusting on TV earlier... there's a program on Channel 4 I think, called Bar Wars. Its another Reality TV program about two opposing teams, imaginatively called "The Girls Team" and (you guessed it) "The Boys Team" who run beach bars in the tourist infested Mediterranean. One of the girls on the program was complaining earlier about "foreigners", and the way she doesn't like them, and how they're terrible because they don't speak English and she can't understand them. I can't remember her exact words, but fuck me, she was awful. The impression she conveyed was that she only liked British people because they were British, and the rest were complete wankers simply because they were foreign and different. The xenophobic small-minded fucking bitch.
I got a call yesterday from the Harvey Nash recruitment agency. They apparently have a job which would suit the profile I stuck up on Monster.com last weekend. I'm looking for a software development management position in Lazio which pays more than STG£40,000 (€64,000). That should be sufficient enough to keep us comfortable in Rome. We'll see what the job is like next week I guess :-)
