How are you?

After a mental week last week with Data loss I am happy to let you know that my mate Ants recovered the lot. Great guy and I recommend him for any IT job you ever need.

Below some news for you, please continue to fire over news stories and opportunities you may have. Also please mention where you found out about any news. Quite keen to hear what is going on over festive period too.

I am hearing on Sunday there’s going to be a Guerrilla gig on Sunday around 1pm as part of the save BBC introducing in Scotland. A good cause I may add.

STAIRWAY

Hope to see you this Saturday night in Stairway where I will be DJing a good mixture of Electro and Rock that will have you fist pumping and air guitaring.
