The TPU UK Clubhouse

[RCoon]

You can have my current job if I get this new one, you don't really need skillz, after all I have been doing it for 9 years!

What are you applying to do, if you don't mind me asking? And what did you do before besides army and babysitting TPU?

What are you applying to do, if you don't mind me asking? And what did you do before besides army and babysitting TPU?

Currently I am a Regional Manager for the Prince's Trust, I am responsible for the Trusts educational programmes for 13-19 year olds, my patch is the Central Region which covers the West Midlads, East midlands, East Anglia and most of the home counties down to and including Essex decent job, but way too much travelling as I have staff in Birmingam, Stoke, Lincoln, Herts and Ipswich.

The job I am applying for is again a charity but to run a very large (£2.5 million) 5 year contract to support 18 - 24 year olds into work based in Wolverhampton, a lot less travelling and £10K a year more!

Wow, that's pretty cool, I'll call you Saint Tatty from now on perhaps And that payrise is almost certainly worth it in itself...

I use my brand spanking new Qashqai for the driving, the Jag's far to thirsty on the juice for that!

How do you find the Qashqai? It seems to be very popular everywhere outside South Kensington.

It's insanely popular here too, hell, a couple I know up in the village outside town own 2 of the damn things!

Very impressed with it to be honest, I got a white 360 special editon 4x4 model with an amazing 1.6Dci engine.... 130HP, 64MPG and zero road tax, goes like sh*t off a shovel. It doubles up as my fishing mobile at weekends also. List price was £24,500 but I got mine from a broker at just over 19K, delivered to my door in September. drives smooth, loads of gadgets and half leather.

I think we all need to do something together, whether it be fishing for pike or the other kind

Yeah right, 120 miles apart! I do enuff travelling with work, I also go on a weeks fishing holiday every year with my mate "Kev the Fish" (no he aint a fish, he just looks like one )

Can't upload vid from work, don't even know if I can "embed" a video into this new forum.

The usual {yt}{/yt} (but with square brackets) still works for me, if I recall.

Our christmas do is on btw coon, so if you have any plans. I dont dwell in pubs much so it will be just a pub crawl around central london. with a few friends or friends of friends maybe.

Sure thing, what date am I to come over, and do I need my own accomodation? Also which train station should I get dropped off at?(Kings Cross is the easiest for me if I recall my trips in days past) Grantham train journey is usually Grantham > Pancras > Kings Cross

It's not a youtube video though, it's a stand alone MP4 video, the site I do it through has changed it all this year, previously it was just a link to follow

date is tbc, I'll have to arrange it with whoevers available. I'll try rope Fourstaff & Bo$$ and a few other TPU'rs into coming as some of them are quite close to the london area.

Kings cross is fine. I will meet you at the station. as for accommodation leave it with me for the moment and i'll see if i can get you a nice place to bed down for the night or 2 on the cheap. my neighbour rents out 2 or 3 of her rooms for overseas students which always go back home at christmas time so im sure she'd be happy to put you up for the night for a few shillings. Id let you stay at my place but 1. Its a shit hole and 2. you will be sleeping rough on the floor 3. my mother will most likely waterboard you the moment you walk through the door to find out who you are, who are you to me and how you know me and other such private questions (im 28 & i cant have friends...sheesh)


If you have better friends i dont mind coming to grantham but i cant bring fourstaff or Bo$$ with me

Nah that all sounds perfect to me. I can't go out to the pubs and clubs in grantham because I've worked in 5 of the local schools. It's best if they don't see me drunk, and best if I don't see them drunk (Illegally). And probably best we don't see each other drunk, so I'm down for London pubbing. If all accomodation fails (somehow unlikely), I'm accustomed to sleeping on the floor these days, I'm not a fan of pillows as i get a bad neck!

Also, we need to get D1nky to come, maybe he'll wear a dress for us.

go around with a pair of these on - Nobody will recognise you!

I'll see if dinky is up for coming.

It all sounded so nice until you put that image in my head. I don't even know what he looks like but the image regardless, is jarring. There is a point of no return with any alcohol where anything (animal, vegetable or mineral) in a dress probably looks shaggable.

I'll be thinking of you chaps when I'm at home in sunny ecosse!

Ok he's a pretty well built muscular guy, not you're typical fat neckbeard (I don't think any of us even look like that anyway). This one time he put up a picture of him flexing his guns, whilst wearing an exceedingly flattering dress.

*INB4 D1nky goes full rage mode now and posts up a picture of me when I was 15 and had no sense of dignity.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

well, Im fat but i aint got no neckbeard - that shit gets itchy.

I'm sorry, I'm the 3mm of stubble kindof guy, even have one of those ridiculous designer stubble shavers. The shame.

Would like to join fishing trip, but I am in the wrong side of the world right now :<

Aw, finished your studies and gone elsewhere for now? When are you back in London?

I dont mind the stubble - I prefer stubble as opposed to clean shaven
