Boxed In

Just been down to the garage to rearrange the boxes left over from our house move... I have FIFTEEN boxes of books. Eeeek!

I'm through with LiveJournal!!

Obviously having a bored moment, hence the posts. A friend commented that she prefers LiveJournal as she has friends there, and I do too ... or so I thought. I visited with the idea of putting more personal stuff there and links here - only to find that all my entries and my friends list have been totally wiped out! Don't know if you have to post there every so often to keep the account active, but as I'm so lax at actually keeping blogs up to date I think I'll just stick to this one from now on.

Thursdays. I never could get the hang of Thursdays

My fiancé's got a Blog now. Wonder if he'll update it more regularly than I do??

Thursdays. I never could get the hang of Thursdays

Fingers crossed ...

I went for an interview with Alamy Images yesterday. I so so so so SO would like that job .......

Here We Go Again!

Seems like this is a fairly key point of my life - having just graduated, moved in with U and now looking for a job - yet I'm not recording what's going on. My personal diary is feeling sad and neglected, as is my LiveJournal account (can't get on with that at all, even though I know loads of people there), so I'll try and pop the odd comment on here - more for my benefit than anyone else!

Breakthrough Generations - The UK study of the causes of breast cancer

For women only :0)

I recently signed up to take part in the Breakthrough Generations long term study into the causes of breast cancer. It aims to observe patterns in 100,000 women in order to try and find some common factors and eventually the causes. At the moment only about 15,000 women have signed up, so I'm posting to try and encourage you to join.

If you do get involved you'll be studied for the next forty or so years, but there's really not all that much to it. Initially you have to fill in a detailed questionnaire about your lifestyle, health, medical background, and there's some quite personal stuff in there too, but it's manageable. You also need to give a blood sample. You'll then be contacted every few years to find out if you have had any major lifestyle or health changes; you may also need to give more blood. But that's it - and you could be helping your children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren ....

Any woman over the age of 18 can take part. I really hope you'll follow the link and find out more.

Ewwwww ...

Now I love unusual foods and Thai green curry is a particular favourite of mine - but Green Curry Crickets are just going a little bit too far for my liking ...

Something of an obsession ....?

Now those who know me may say I'm a little obsessed with books .... but this chap is taking the obsession a little too far! I love the furniture, especially the table and chairs, but the kitchen is a little disappointing.

the perfect wedding gift?

I considered this idea for wedding rings for, ooh, about two tenths of a second. Think I'd prefer white gold for ours!
