Irish island costs less than an average London home
Less than the average house price full stop (around £270k). £140 000 not that much in terms of house buying.

By the way remember how I said I would stay off twitter forever?

Here are some dudes who decided being incredibly vile to Curt Schilling about his daughter would be a good idea: https://38pitches.wordpress.com/2015/03/01/the-world-we-live-in-man-has-it-changed/

I hope ruining your lives was worth it guys.

I don't know. I like the mother who posted tactfully that Schilling is just perpetuating this sort of behaviour as he directed the Twitter mob to go after each of these guys.

What do you do?

Same thing I've done forever - market research. So designing questionnaires and analysing* results.

I forgot what first days are like. My boss's train is late, so I have largely just been chilling at my desk. Not even a computer yet. :D

*forgive my British spellings. iPhone is set to British spellings, so this is not a new affectation of mine. -_-

I don't know that it'll be autocorrecting my grammar. :D

Did I give the impression that any facet of this situation was not horrifying?
