Had today off work, and finally got to attending the training course for the APAUSE program I mentioned a few weeks ago. It was very informative and I'm looking forwad to when I start going to schools to actually give the talk.

It ran from 2pm til just after 8pm. I forget just how tiring learning can be. 'Twas very fun though.

My weekend

A somewhat delayed write-up.


Saturday: Was working. Was quite sleep-deprived, having not got much sleep due to a call-out at 6am. Then went to see [livejournal.com profile] softfruit and had a very pleasant evening chatting about

Sunday:
Went to see [livejournal.com profile] dineleeeee in Whalley Range for JOTI/JOTA. Turns out it's the same place where I helped out with the NRAE training 5 years ago so I was recognised by a couple of the people.

Would likes to have contacted [livejournal.com profile] hoopycat via IRLP but the local node was in use. Some other time, perhaps. Oh, and I've been out of touch with the amatuer radio community for so long I didn't even know that the license was code-free. This means I now have access to HF. I'll renew my license, in that case. (I let it lapse about 4 or 5 years ago, and never got around to renewing it) 'Twas lots of geeky fun.

Then I went to the filmsoc where I used to do projection to see how they're getting on this year. Turns out that the society isn't running anymore. That's a big surprise. I think this must be the first year in 20 (or so) that it's not run.


Today and tomorrow: off work - that was gong to be for the APAUSE training I mentioned recently but it was cancelled, so I'm at a loose endfor a couple of days.

Today I've done nothing other than watch a film (Jackass: The Movie) and spod online.

[livejournal.com profile] sythic - are you still interested in going to the cinema tomorrow? Anyone else? (It'll have to be before 7pm because I'm busy in the evening)

I've developed cold-like symptoms. Feeling quite congested and achey.

Am seeing [livejournal.com profile] mrk this evening, having not seen him for many months. He's the person that I met in Manchester and have known the longest, so it will be good to catch up. It might mean missing [livejournal.com profile] whalebaby's thing tonight, but I'll try to drag him along.

I've booked off next weekend from work so can go to Reading / London. (Hmm. Must sort out accommodation)

STILL NOT GOT FUCKING ADSL.

I've also started doing volunteer work for a university society as part of the APAUSE program.

Life is good, if somewhat hectic.
