Good News Nobody

So I have had a few days to digest the news. Next year I will be a student. Does this mean I will be a grumpy fifth year, or a raving fresher?

<- Is this what I am to become?

Yesterday really was quite a great day of sport. Watched the Grand Prix at the cinema, which was an interesting experience but definitely not worth the money over plain old TV. Was a brilliant race though. An englishman dominating at the British Grand Prix in a British Car (with a German engine). 

Right, I would say something else here; my awful admission. My dark dark secret. I will never tell... Am I the biggest nerd of the house? Is the end of the world....?

P.S. Who is this "John" in Chuck's post.... "That's not my name!"

"Working from home"

I will be returning to Durham next weekend, on Saturday afternoon to be more precise. For this week though, I am working from home... which basically means I have to read a few papers and look at a couple of websites from the comfort of my own bedroom... and get paid! Hurray! I like this job. 

In the week that has passed since I left Durham I haven't really done anything particularly exciting. I took my tortoise to the pet shop to check it's sex; went to a barbeque; bought Eden's graduation present (which I am rather pleased with) and unpacked. Unpacking did seem slightly unnecessary seeing as it was only for two weeks, but unfortunately most of my clothes needed washing. 

Well, this would have been a more interesting blog if my tortoise had in fact been male and I had to face the dilemma that his name was Tallullah. Unfortunately "it's tail hangs in the middle" as the man in the pet shop said, so I'll have to work harder next week to make my life more interesting...

The house is ours!

So, we've owned the house for 24 hours now - and we're still all talking to each other... (Well I doubt that anybody other than Chuckspresence have talked to each other today as we're all miles apart from each other, but at least nobody is actively not talking to anybody else... (Well I assume that you're not, although to be fair I haven't heard anything from any of you today, so maybe you are all avoiding me?))

In other news, I managed to fix my new computer this evening, so I am now officially unpacked.
