I started my new job last Thursday. I think I’m really going to enjoy it- my colleagues are lovely and the work is varied (and at least vaguely related to my degree!). I’ll be glad when I’ve got the hang of things and don’t have to keep asking questions. I came home after my first [...]

Employment at last
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 [...]

On the 6th of August Mr Beans and I met Sara at a festival organised by the people at innocent. It was great fun despite the horribly hot weather and I love everything that innocent do, as well as their ethics. I’d probably like to work for them, if they weren’t based in London, although [...]

The highlight came at the end: for his second encore, Teddy came out on his own (minus the excellent guitarists and drummer), and was trying to get the volume right on his [...]

Imprezzed
Mr Beans and I had our belated valentine’s meal at Prezzo in Cambridge lastnight. We had booked, but when we arrived no suitable tables were available.

Tennis w00tness
At the end of last year, I entered into the public ballot for tickets to the Wimbledon Championships. I’ve now had a letter telling me that I’ve been allocated two tickets for centre court on the second day :o) I love Wimbledon- it’s a unique place, steeped in tradition and Englishness, with a fantastic atmosphere.
