What did you do in 2010?

Yep, was Dare to be Digital and no, the company wasn't RTW (RIP).

Aye, a real shame that they went under but from the outside it looked like some seriously silly decisions made there. Lots of friends now scattered about the World thanks to that.

Good luck with the job anyway. :)

//edit ah just checked your Trust to find out who you are/were, I thought I should recognise you.

Did a lot of snowboarding, including some epic powder days.

Had a daughter to complete my little family :)
 
Quit a job without anything lined up to take 3 months off to study to pass my Chartered Tax Adviser exams. Massive risk. Everything worked out well in the end - I passed my exams so I'm now fully qualified, I found an excellent job that I'm really happy in and that I'm doing well at, and we managed to afford a new computer, new car and some work around the house.

Back of the net.
 
Took HGV test, passed HGV test.
Got job driving HGV.

Went on a large scale camp with a group of Guides who'd never camped before (excellent)
Spent almost 3 weeks in midwest America and loved it
Grandmother died

A year of ups and downs. But on balance despite my family losses. Both of which have hit me hard, 2010 was still better than 2009. Here's to 2011!
 
Landscaped my garden. No rear access so had to lump 17 railway sleepers, 35 square metres of decking, 15 square metres of turf, and 125 wheelbarrow loads of dirt through the house. Mrs randal24 was very good about the whole affair in fairness. :D
