Holiday to the Lake District – Day One

On the Move Again
It started with a phone call. Me: Hello? Woman#1: Hello I’m Random-Babbling-Blonde-With-A-Forgettable-Name from Current-Letting-Agency. Me: Hi there. Woman#1: The landlord has asked to have a look round the property on Saturday morning, is that convenient? Me: I guess we could … Continue reading
And Here I am – Again

Grass is Always Greener?
When I first moved to Bristol, back in September 2004, I chose my accommodation very carefully from the wide range of buildings and locations offered by the university. I had it in my head at the time that I wanted … Continue reading
The Real Me?
I am two people, not one. I guess we all are, really. Not in a split personality way, although some people are. Just in a variable mood sort of way. I doubt I’m really that different from most people, and … Continue reading
This is an Update
Wow, over three months since my last post here! Hasn’t time flown by?! Well, probably not if you’ve actually been waiting for me to update, but in this age of RSS feeds and automation, who actually does that? I come … Continue reading
Backward Banks
For me, a poor, penniless student with no property, no morgage, no deposit for a morgage, no shares and no capital, the recession has, so far, had very little impact on my life. Perhpas this will change in a few … Continue reading

Pizza-Pasta, Pasta-Pizza

Will it Ever Stop Snowing?!
As I write this the snow is falling for at least the third time this week, and it has been forecast to land on Bristol almost every day for the next week or so. I guess when they say it’s … Continue reading
Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!
I’m hoping to find time this afternoon to write a longer, more interesting post than the one I’m writing now. This is just a little something to keep you going, written quickly in the gap between the end of a … Continue reading
Choppy Choppy
This is a post that I started writing over a week ago and I’ve only just found the time to finish it. Apologies for the delay! As I sit on this rail replacement coach, from which I write to you … Continue reading
Goodbye 2008
Oh dear Lord! Gerald, come quickly, that dreadful Mark Glover is about to bore everyone to death with another of those horrible end of year summary round-robin-esque posts that make such DULL reading every December. How utterly awful! That’s right … Continue reading
The Big Festive Deadline
It’s 24th December 2003 and my 15 year old self has just arrived home from a 12 hour shift at Waitrose. I enter the lounge to discover the family tree is up but not decorated, the ceiling decorations are nowhere to … Continue reading
