The Not Report
April 22nd, 2009
The Not Report was not an idea by Christopher J Marshall and written by Ian P McIver from a task created by Christopher J Marshall during a conversation with Ian P McIver.
You will not get the chance to read about my fruitless efforts at trying to get a new life in the space of a few days, nor will you see the whole thing set out in a pleasing format.
Date: 20th April 2009
Subject: The Not Report

The Not Report
The Assignment: To try and get a new job and a new girlfriend by close of business on 20th April 2009.
Equipment: One not attractive nor interesting twenty-five year old man, not a whole world out there waiting to be infiltrated by a budding singleton and not the population of Newcastle.
Method: The acquisition of a new life (those parts being further employment and a “better half”.
Report: Upon receipt of the initial instructions I did not take it upon myself to set out the goals that I was trying to achieve. As well as this I did not take the time to spend any time looking in the right places for love that generally include local bars, pubs and dating websites. After the first day I did not think about what I was trying to do. After the second day I also did not think about what I was trying to do. Approaching the end of the weekend I did not actually leave the house other than to take my respective son, aka The Chop, back to his proper home over in Throckley.
At the beginning of today I did not check any job websites nor obtain the jobs paper that is issued weekly on a Thursday in the Tyne and Wear area.
As a result of this it appears as though I not only did not get the new job I was hoping for but I am not attached, nor in a relationship with, nor have any prospects with the opposite sex.
Here is a collection of photos I did not take to further explain my predicament.
Conclusion: Not doing things is not the right way to go about problems.

I am not very pleased with this, nor do I think you fulfilled all your objectives. No thank you.

I’ve not read this, can you not sum it up for me in not less than 7 words?

No, I can’t, and haven’t done so below:
Ian was not wasting his life and failed to become a failure.

I’m not surprised that nobody found this interesting.
I am also not happy that I managed to do something squiffy with da beans for once.
