On the move again
PSA for today: I start a new job with Ubisoft Montréal on July 13th of this year. I'm really looking forward to working on the [top secret, don't ask] project they have lined up!

In response to inevitable questions:


  • Yes, that Montréal. The one in Québec. The Québec in Canada. Where we will be living.

  • Yes, that Ubisoft. In fact, that Ubisoft Montréal, who made all the new Prince of Persia games, and Assassin's Creed, Far Cry 2 etc. etc.



That's all for now. I may or may not have time to have some kind of leaving party, so I'll keep you all up to date.

You forgot the Tom Clancy games :P

That secret project better be Heroes of Might 'n' Magic XIII "The Quest for Shinier Items" :P

Seriously though, congratulations.. it's pretty much the best thing Hazel and yourself were aiming for hopefully?

Just run i they try and fit you with a flip-top head. i hear they do that, I saw it on tv so it must be true.

WOW AMAZING!

Congratulations in joining the (small) ranks of husbands / boyfriends who follow their wives / girlfriends back the land of said lady's birth!

You'll love it. Just make sure you tie up everything in the UK before leaving. That was my biggest mistake.

Fab stuff boyo, sounds like you're all sorted.

Much Jealousy,

Not because I want to work for Ubisoft or live in Montréal, But because you'll be doing what you want to do, where you want to do it.

Congratulations, and Keep in touch!

...

Well, I wrote a few sentences and deleted them again, because they were all things like:
"I am breathlessly rubbing myself through my trouser pocket"
and
"Could I fit in your suitcase, do you think? Only, I need to have sex with that man's face."

What would you be doing? You're literally living my dream, here. I doubt you'll be doing concept art, though - wooo, palpitations! I am insane - so it's not quite to-the-letter, but...

Indeed! I've been running through my head how I can get down to visit you guys - I might still be able to work something out. Regardless, I'll keep you posted about abovementioned potential party, and hope I see you one way or the other.

I used to like Rainbow 6, but I haven't played any since then. I just go back and play Hidden and Dangerous *again*.

On a related note, you and Jen wouldn't like a second hamster, would you? We can't take Dr. P with us :(

There are so many people we'll be seeing more often, and so many people it'll be a lot harder to see.

That's bad ass!!! :D

I will be in Montreal on a Linux conference the 12 - 19! We should get together. That week there is also a VNV Nation concert in Montreal on Tuesday, should anyone want to go ;) I can show you guys the goth clubs if you like ;) Or just hang out!

Congrats!

That is... a great set of awesome coincidences. I suspect Hazel will be rather excited at the prospect of going to see VNV Nation, and I'd enjoy it a lot too.

More importantly: HELLS YES we should get together!
