Well I have this afternoon passed MCITP, that has to do something for my career. It was hard work but very much worth it and very rewarding personally. I think I will go on and get another accreditation under my belt, but I am not really sure what next. I am thinking of doing Sharepoint as that seems to be mentioned quite alot these days but there is also Exchange and ISA to consider.
On the Australia front no news really, but that will change later in the year once we have sorted out some small issues here in the UK.
I think its time to up the game with my photography its taken quite a back seat over the last couple of months. If you would like to see some of my photography take a look here http://www.flickr.com/photos/edie209/ leave a comment and let me know what you think.

I have been offered a Job in Australia
Well its time to start writing again, it makes me feel good even if noone else reads it.
I'm sat here writing this listening to "Reserection Joe" by The Cult god they are (were) such a great band managed to see them twice too. Anyway I diverce, whats been happening well I have had two interviews for Australian Jobs and one for a UK job, don't know if I am ready to leave my current position at the moment as I get to study loads as there is no pressure at the moment and I will be MCITP Enterprise Administrator very soon so thats a good reason and then I can demand higher wagesas I think my current company gets me too cheap. Back to the interviews one was for a Job in Hindmarsh which is in Victoria the interview was quite strage really with all the delay and not being able to see people faces, I didn't get it but I don't think I would have wanted to live there really, no affence to anyone who lives there but I don't think it was for me and my family.
The 2nd interview was for a position in Rockhampton North Queensland, I ended up having two interviews the first was really funny because I was woken up early one morning by the phone answered it and was straight in to an interview, laying in bed ????, well they then wanted a 2nd interview over skype and it went well, well so well that they offered me the job, but they couldn't offer me any more than 12 months at a time so I turned it down. What do I feel now? well strange really, actually very good I now know it IS possible to land a job in Australia from the UK.
Oh and the 3rd interview was here in the UK but I am still waiting to here from them but unless they offer at least £8k more than what I am on I think it a no go.
So whats next well I think get the house finished and on the market...... then Australia Part 2 well lets hope so what the hell did I go through the visa process for if not to give Australia a damn good try.
