The official cheapskate version of post....

without picture!

Alright? Hi everyone, Before I started working as a CLDW. I was fortunate enough to be part of the embrionic stages at Cafe K. Indeed, though cultivating this project I have seen it grow and develop at a rate which suits the young people we work with and the community centre. Interesting part: I was one of the last YTS trainees earning £25.00 per week so thanks Maggie Thatcher for the foot up! (Sarcasm is one of my strong points!).

I’m also a massive fan of Meat Loaf, he’s the best!!
