the brilliant mind and intellect that is s'ilancy!!

so. im applying to jobs in birmingham left and right now, cause i really want to get out of texas. i mean, im a moderate in many things, but as far as location, one side of the country or the other, thank you :)

anyways, i found this really cool web design job, and applied to it. well, the genius that i am, didnt really take into account that this particular compnay was in birmingham, england. i mean, i saw the addy and whatnot, but for some reason, it just didnt click. all i read was BIRMINGHAM, and that was good enough for me.

so there you have it.

ive unintentionally applied for a job in england ^_^;

It's their city's fault for not realizing that there was already a Birmingham in Alabama!

I hear that in Birmingham, UK the primary means of conveyance is the rickshaw, and that auto-motorcars are nigh-on unheard of.

I think you should have told them you could go, but ask for a later time as the car ride would take a while :)

Yeah you can't trust your car in liverpool, but then Nottingham is nearly as bad for that at the moment :D

I might be moving to Birmingham next year, thinking of selling my car ;)

Being mugged in Nottingham just makes sense.
