Well, to other things, with the recession the Irish government has been doing the best they can to stimulate the economy and create opportunities but it is a slow tedious old job. There are just no employment openings here anywhere so the government is concentrating on improving peoples options by sending them on skills training schemes so that they can have more qualifications, and guess who got caught up in one of them, yup me !
I was told by our local unemployment office to take a scheme or course over the summer months or risk having my unemployment payment reduced by 50 percent !!! So here I am in Carlow IT college doing a course in Web Design until September, it’s not bad actually but I did have other things planned for my time that I had to postpone.
The weather here is wetter than a wet thing, if it does not stop raining soon I think I will turn into a Dolphin or something, oh to have some sunshine :-(
