I’m on what British universities call Reading Week. In my previous student incarnations I might have laughed heartily at that concept and proceeded to spend the time getting intoxicated in some way or other, but this time I actually need to make use of the time. So I need to put other non-essential activities aside (and this includes straightening up the house) and concentrate on uni. I do have another few things to do but I will endeavour to do them all in an hour or less per heading, or generally as little time as possible.

Whooooooah! T minus 1 for my Life Club and my bog box o’ stuff has only just arrived, so I’m looking forward to having a scooch through that, and will need to run through a club later on to check timings and that I can remember to do it all right. Or well enough. It’ll be a somewhat reduced dress rehearsal as HA seems to be the only person available to walk through with me, and that’s because a) he works from home and b) he’s incapacitated today by recent dental surgery and some sort of bug, so he couldn’t run away if he tried. Bit gutted because I was supposed to be volunteering at Make a Difference Day at work today and I now have too much stuff to do, but them’s the breaks. I’ll be there in spirit.

Anyway. Stuff to do.
