House Buying Update

Received the contract for the house today! Yay!

On every document there is a typo in the names. Boo!

I’ll have to call the lawyers tomorrow to see how much of an issue this is.

Jobless Graduate Sues her College (via BBC)

Apparently a graduate unable to find work in the US is suing her college

I thought I would post this in an attempt to come up with some words to describe how completely stupid I think this is, but I really can’t find any.

So all I will say is…. this is completely stupid!

No really, I worry about  the sanity of our planet when this is the type of thing people feel they should take legal action against.

Going Away

Spend yesterday evening travelling around the Midlands a bit. Yesterday was Top Gear Live at the NEC in Birmingham and after having such a great time last year I couldn’t wait to go again this year. The difference being this time I remembered to take my real camera and didn’t have to rely on a poor camera phone.

The photos aren’t great quality due to the lighting but are greatly improved on anything I managed last year:

From Top Gear Live – Nov 16th

Something strange happened to me yesterday. I forgot to eat. Usually when hungry my body lets me know and I attempt to find something in the kitchen. But yesterday I skipped breakfast (I rarely eat in the mornings anyway. It makes me ill), completely forgot about lunch and then missed getting something to eat in the evening due to seeing Top Gear. I’ll have to try and not do that again. 40 hour gaps between meals probably aren’t all that healthy.

After Top Gear I headed to Leicester for the weekly visit. I figured getting it out of the way yesterday would leave me the entirety of today to be lazy and think about packing for the trip I am leaving on tomorrow. Packing isn’t not something I am usually very good at so I need to give myself a good run at it. I did some this morning and I think I have it mostly covered.

Tomorrow I head up North for four days to get completely away from work. Thanks to the wonders of technology I may be able to post but commenting could be a bit tricky. Pictures and stories will follow next weekend.
