Guess who’s back
I’ve been behind on posting recently, to my detriment, because so much more has happened since I was last on here. Everything is go in my house at the moment, as we are getting ready to host an American as part of Operation Friendship, and in addition to that we’re hosting the welcome party on […]

Guns and Garage Sales: Part Two
First and foremost, I got my exam results which were fine, and my 2nd year of medicine is finally done and dusted. Back to the business at hand, and slightly late. But hey, don’t sue me, I’m on holiday! Here’s part two. Dennis, who lives next door to my brother, is a collector. Not just […]

The desk

What a week!
I’m back home, and completely exhausted. This week has been a total write-off in terms of work, as I started off tired from fencing and enjoying myself all weekend, then I had the 2nd year medicine formal on Wednesday night to ensure I would be wrecked for remainder. Now add to that my new cold/whatever […]

The journey home
Free wifi is always an alluring prospect, and having it on an otherwise incredibly boring 4 hour bus journey seems perfect. What I didn’t bank on was how busy the bus got as we stopped to pick up people along the way s Free wifi is always an alluring prospect, and having it on an […]
