I realised something tonight- despite half the people I know being INCREDIBLY overexcited for Jessica Jones starting in November I still haven't got the faintest clue who/what she is. I mean I know it's a Marvel thing but is she a super hero? a mutant? an ordinary person caught up in all the aliens & superhero nonsense? Just no idea whatsoever ( Read more... )

It's so gorgeous and sunny outside and I want to be out there and not stuck in here! Ages ago I'd planned to take this afternoon off so I could get to Kingston in plenty of time and wander around the shops & near the river and in this weather it would have been perfect. Sadly it's E's last day in the office before she takes 3 weeks off so I have to ( Read more... )

Good morning LJ, it's actually sunny here today and I have ticked three things off my to-do list before it's even 10am!

We appear to have gone back to spring (I refuse to believe this is autumn :P) with the crazy rain-sun-rain-sun combination and the fact that it currently looks beautiful outside but I'm freezing :-/

(sometimes I think I talk about the weather too much in here, I'm slightly scared by how many times I've used this tag, but then I am English and it's ( Read more... )

Welcome to July! This is my last full week at my current job which is VERY weird. Yesterday was my last day volunteering with the museum I've been helping at for nearly 3 years which was equally weird and kind of sad because a bunch of the staff weren't there (mind you they're close enough to my new job I'll probably end up working with some of ( Read more... )
