Leela had a phone call today - she has been offered a job in a hospital in Cheltenham!
We went up at the start of the week; she had her interview and I had a look around. It looks like a nice place. I'd been up there once before for a meeting, but had literally just driven straight to their office and back out to the M5 again. It was good to have a wander round - I felt horribly lost, but managed to find the same car park twice, so it can't be too bad. Leela finishes her pre-reg ...

Once upon a time, I was sitting at my computer minding my own business when the front door opened, some people wandered in, and started walking around my flat. That time was about 5 minutes ago, and they're still here now.

I don't really expect anyone to use it, but it should save me a lot of time when I want to link to an old entry. I was going to put up a 'recently searched' list, but then I remembered I ...

I've been away for a week. Well, I was away from Tuesday to Friday - I went back to Kent, had two days of meetings with various peoples, and came back again. So I'm back in Cornwall now, and back on the work. Lots to catch up on. It's Leela's turn this week - she has set off for a week of partying and presentationing at some hospital in Devon.
