Paul Johnson replied to laura cameron's discussion Semi Skilled in help of info"What accounting qualification are you studying? It's worth getting ACCA, ACA or CIMA; anything less isn't worth it.

Depends; not worth brining TVs, they may not work as we have different TV system, and you can pick up a bog standard flat screen for about $200.
We use 220 volts (UK 240) and is you have an adapter you'll be fine. Bring…"

One Year On

Today is the first anniversary of my departure from the UK; it seems like yesterday there was all the hassle and stress of packing up our life in the UK before we took a month long holiday in the US on our way to Perth.
I don't miss the UK at all, just people, and with Skype and FaceBook and the like, the distance really isn't that far.

Now at last we'll…

Currently in the running for two permanent jobs too, so at the moment everything is going in the right…
