I bought a bull today.
Yes folks, I start my new job as a butcher with Tesco tomorrow. I have a day's induction and I start my training on Monday 11th. To celebrate I bought a bull and took him to the local park to have a photo shoot. He is my new lucky mascot. I'm calling him Eric.
Wish me luck in my new career with Tesco.

Best of luck for your first day. Trust you don't have to be there for 6am.
Hope it's an induction and not an indoctrination!
Like the cow. Where did you get it a toy shop or charity shop?
Hilarious. You obviously had lots of fun together. Hope you really enjoy your new job, & that the early starts aren't too problematic re transport to Tesco.
GailsMan: Cheers mate. No first day is 9am. Got the toy bull from a toy shop. Was having a daft moment or two.
Karen: Glad you like my silly sense of humour or is that moomour? I have some plans re: early starts at Tesco, at least in the early days. I may moooo-ve to Beeston.
But what about your udder friend, Monka? Hope he doesn't get jealous! Look forward to meeting Eric at some point. Good luck tomorrow my friend, hope everything goes Ok.
Janette: Eric was very moooved that you would like to meat him sometime. Oh God, sorry you're a veggie. Er,er, he will be sure to share some grass with you and some root vegetables n' stuff.
In all seriousness, thanks for the good wishes Janette. I'm looking forward to it all. xxxx
Been lurking, reading your blog posts for a while now - first comment (I think!).
Saw you in Beeston the other day/week but wasn't sure if you were the kind of person that minds random strangers saying hi - are you?
When do you actually start in the Beeston Tesco's store? I'll have to drop by and see what you've got on the counter..
My, how gullible can I get! I thought it was a real bull when I saw your FB post.
Eric is handsome but I'd sure miss Monka.
Tina. lol. a real bull? tee hee.
Envengcat: Lurking huh? You're welcome to lurk. Oh yes do come into the store when it opens and introduce yourself. I am very friendly. :0)I'll be on the meat or fish counter. Thanks for your comment.
I hope your first day went well ...
... don't tell Eric what you do at Tesco though!
Hope Tesco life is proving a good life but how come you might be on the fish counter?
Love little Eric
