Hi Guys! Wow, so many lawyers ... I nearly did law for undergrad (we can do that here in UK), but went for Spanish instead at the last minute and looky at me now, still here and still doing it, 8 years later!!! I talked with my supervisor today about going to do a masters in translation after I finish the PhD, and he thinks it would be a good move - it would mean I could diversify and teach translation as well as lit. Sooooooooo, Blokey and I are seriously thinking about leaving Oxford next summer, because the best course is in Norwich. It's kind of scary thinking about moving across the country after being in Oxford for so long, but it's kind of exciting too. I even looked up property on the web, and it's so affordable we could live somewhere nice. YIPPEE
Rina, thanks for kind words about my measurements. I've been at this since March last year, and I've just come out of a 4-month plateau and am once again in virgin fat territory. If I can do it, you can too
Kim - new flat! Eek on the bugs but at least they're gone now. Is it nice? What's it like?
Kay - good luck on the job hunt, but it's nice to do the domestic thing for a bit, isn't it?
Trish - giving the baby a sugar rush, eh? It'll be a little Sprite addict before you know it ... funny they don't move for carrots or lettuce isn't it?!
Ali - you can't work too much! You have to have you-time too. Oh, and weren't you going to tell us the goss on yur blokey?
Shalyne - you have goss for us too, I think ... hope it goes well with the new chap. And YIPPEE on the loss
