Dotted = Plotted. - 12DEC17

"Has the snow gone yet ?" I say as I creep out of the furnace I call my room.


It's been an interesting weekend, the whole of Britain goes into lock down whilst the rest of Europe laughs at us, its not like the weather forecast has predicted snow and cold weather for at-least a week, long enough for grit to be put on the roads but oh well, as the rain washes the snow away, I have been able to keep on preparing for my maths module and in my spare time have plotted all my iCMA and TMA dates for both modules onto an A1 calendar on my wall. May seems to be my busiest month with 2 TMA's and 1 iCMA, the rest of the year is 2 assignments a month which should be managed.

Working over Christmas so thats a month of 12 hour shifts, and nope no over time for me or double pay.

Booked a night at Coombe Abbey Garden Restaurant to celebrate Christmas since I wont be able to see the Mrs over the Christmas period. Who said joining the Forces was a good idea?

Looking for a good bag that can protect my laptop, is waterproof and has enough space for some OU books, a notepad and pencil case, in order to allow me to:

a) Take my studies away into a field with me.

b) Keep everything neat and tidy when it's not in use.

Any suggestions ?
