I’ve just tried out the journey to work. A little premature since I’m not starting til next term, but it was a lovely sunny afternoon and I thought I’d get out in it.
I bought a second-hand electric bike a few months back (one of these), having been inspired by Ray’s lovely folding electric bike. It’s not been getting regular use but I’m going to use it to get to my new job. The trip is only 1.5 miles and takes about 10 minutes. The route is fairly flat but it still really helps to have a motor, especially for getting away at junctions. I also use the bike for getting to my allotment, which is a hilly journey.

LOL. That sums it up really. I didn’t like Shaun of the Dead but this is less dark. It’s pretty tasteless in places but it’s full of laughs.

Deary me, haven’t blogged for aaages. I’ve just accepted a part-time science technician job at Wildern School, Hedge End. I’m very excited- I’ve always been keen to work in education and in the local community, and I get to do some science too :o)
Unfortunately we have to wait for my CRB check to clear before I can start, so I may be delayed until after the Easter holidays. But that’s ok- I think it’ll be worth the wait. My self-esteem has taken a huge leap.

I’ve started using West End library which is very handy. I really enjoyed this book- essentially a love story but with a great deal more to it.

We went to see this for my Mum’s birthday- unfortunately neither of my parents enjoyed it, but my sister and I thought it was quite enjoyable. Jack Black was very good.
