I only write occasionally here now, as you will see. However, there is an archive of over 2,000 posts which I’ve made over the last 20+ years, which are all still accessible.

New Week…
Been a bit busy! I’m so happy that for a second year running, I’m on campus all day on a Tuesday. 9:00 lecture in the morning, then a 1:00 and a 4:00, followed by CU in the evening. Still it wasn’t too bad. Saw Joe, Alex and Philippa in the bar for a bar breakfast…

The Weekend
Yesterday, I went in for Fresher’s fair. It was pretty good… 54 people (or thereabouts) signed up for CU. That was pretty cool. I did a half an hour set for the radio station, went well apart from the fact that the needle skipped very easily if you trod too hard! And, of course, there…

Finally!
Well. That was a good day. I will try and be brief, because I’m fairly tired, but… this morning I went in to the free lunch. It was pretty cool, quite a few people came along. Mostly postgrads again! But still it was good. Then after that I came back home. Didn’t do much this…

Near the end of Fresher’s Week now!
… and I’m glad. Hasn’t been a bad week, just busy. This morning I spent a while chatting to Rich on the phone (Rich as in the guy from the DJ workshops). I had sent him a copy of my demo earlier this week, and he quite liked it! Then it was lunch, then onto…

Today’s events
This morning, we (as in, everyone from our house except Ash) went onto campus for bag carrying. It wasn’t exactly the most succesful event we’ll ever do… I don’t think many people were moving in today! There was hardly anyone moving in at all! Ah well. We tried! So after that resounding unsuccess, we went…

Freshers and Stuff
That’s right! It’s fresher’s week here at Essex University. This morning I got up, and went in for 10:30 to do bag carrying. This is basically an idea that the CU had, of going round and helping people to move in. It’s a good way of meeting people… I helped to move three or four.…

We have the internet!
Yay! The router arrived this morning. We now have the internet at home. That is good news, is it not? Anyway. I can’t update much, so I’ll hopefully post something later. See you then…

Yes, I know… no updates!
I know I haven’t been updating much! The reason being, broadband was activated on Wednesday but unfortunately we couldn’t access it because the router was faulty. D’oh! Anyway, I sent it back, have the refund (or should have soon), ordered another one (from a company that isn’t staffed by monkeys) and hopefully it should arrive…

The last few days
Stuff happened. I went to the Rose & Crown. Zoe came up for the weekend. So did Foz and Andy B, so I saw them. We should be getting broadband tomorrow (assuming BT flip a switch, dunno why it’s taken this long…) Normal service will be resumed once I have internet access at home. I’m…

Update
Very quick update… I’ve been a bit more busy the past few days but haven’t got the time to talk about it! Basically just chatting with Phil, Sarah and Suzi (who have all moved in now), Joe, watching DVDs, going to the pub, and stuff. Zoe is coming up to stay for the weekend. As…
