An Appreciation of the UK: Back here again

Back here again

After three weeks taking phonecalls for a local visitor attraction, I'm back on the job hunt. I've not been doing it full time since the design firm went quiet. Four applications in currently. Hopefully this will lead to some more interviews. In the meantime, have had lots going on in the evenings. We saw the new Bond film, and liked it. Tap classes are going well - still enjoying it. Musical theatre has been a bit wonky because the MD hasn't been around, but we had a good session last week.

Over the weekend, I headed up to the Lake District and saw Blackwell Arts and Crafts House, which is a superb building. On Sunday I walked up the fells at the south end of Coniston and had great views across the surrounding area: sea to one side, and snowy mounts to the other. M6 is a nuisance, though we did see some fireworks from the car window. This weekend will bring visits to Gloucester and the Rainbow in Digbeth. Further invitations for coming weeks include the Christmas market, a trip to Llyn Ogwen and also to the Hollywood Costume exhibit at the V&A museum. Anyone fancy giving me a lottery win?
