Wow, it’s been really rather a long time since I wrote a proper blog post. Why? Well, frankly I’ve been a bit busy. Sorry about that. Why so busy? Let me try to briefly explain…
Since I last wrote I’ve had the world’s longest sore throat problem, I’ve moved from Manchester back to London, I’ve switched project at work, and I’ve started looking for a flat to buy. Where to start?
Two weeks ago now, I moved back to London having spent 7 months in Manchester. I’d been working on the development of BBC R&D’s new lab there, and I’ll be aiming to blog about that soon separately. But with the department moved into their new home it was time for me to return.
While I am glad to be back in London, it was sad to leave the people I’ve got to know in Manchester. My housemates and I went for a lovely meal and a few drinks, and I shall miss them all, while my colleagues and I had a goodbye lunch, some drinks, some more drinks, and then another beer. I was particularly pleased with my goodbye presents, a bottle of wine and a flat cap (see picture!). Apparently whippets can’t be bought as leaving presents.
