God's got the trouble shovel out again.

OK, so here's what's going well.

Got a new job

Have handed over my old responsibilities to the guy who's doing my old job (actually split it between 5 other guys.)

Running up on two new projects.

My house is almost packed up for a move

Friends are waiting to help

Where's the trouble then? Landlady of the new flat in Scotland has just pulled out of the deal - so I'm officially homeless a week on Sunday.

So don't panic Billy, deal in facts. Got nowhere permanent to live in Scotland, it's a 250 mile each way commute, but I am moving in with my Mum next week, which reduces it to 150 miles each way, there are hotels and bed and breakfast places in Scotland and there is the fellowship.

It could be much, much worse. Look on the bright side, for every month I live with Mum, that's around a grand I can save in rent, energy and standing charges.
