Great stuff WW! Pleased for you matey.Look forward to sharing a few bevvies!Wigan White wrote:I'm good at the moment thanks. As people on the forum know I was out of work last year and started an 18 months fixed term contract job in January. Well I've just been notified that the position has been made permanent. This obviously means a bit more financial stability so I'll be renewing my membership for the coming season and attending a few games. Unfortunately for you this means you'll have to put up with me in the pavilion for a pre match beverage or two. On another note I'll be able to attend the away game at Wigan again. Lets hope it clashes with the Wigan Beer Festival again.dlw10 wrote:Wigan White wrote:I'm sure I heard Kev say that all postage would be charged to the author.dlw10 wrote:What was the postage charge Kev?

Re: The Book Thread
WW really pleased for you, glad it worked out. My son is in the same situation. He was made redundant in January and is working on a temporary contract which keeps getting extended. He is hoping that it turns to permanent.Wigan White wrote:I'm good at the moment thanks.

Re: The Book Thread
The holidays often means you'll read books you wouldn't normally pick up. I hadn't seen the film The Martian, so I read the book by Andy Weir and it was excellent.
Like me, if you haven't seen the film, I would really recommend that you read the book first and then see the film, which is what I did. The film is really good but nowhere near as good as the book. They also left out quite a bit in the film, which surprised me. I'm not mad into chemistry and science so I just let a lot of that detail pass over me, but it is really worth staying with it for a quality story.
