#spring #summer in weeknotes

It's been a long time since my last weeknote. A quick summary follows:

  • My son did his first triathlon.
  • I wore a kilt for the first time. I was one of ten best men at my friend's wedding in Skye.
  • First time watching tennis live at Queen's Tennis Court
  • Live music - Regina Spektor, First Aid Kit, CMAT,
  • Twelth Night - Shakespear in a very posh London square
  • Finished a book! Here Goes Nothing by Steve Toltz.
  • Swam in the sea at An Corran Beach, Whitesands Bay, Omaha Beach, Utah Beach, Tide Mills, Playa de la Casita Azul, Praia do Tonel, Praia de Carvoeiro
  • Foraged mushrooms and plants in Sussex. Cooked up some puffball and purple deceiver mushrooms for breakfast the next day. Picked and ate a stinging nettle.
  • Running is going good - now working towards 8K.
  • Tonnes of job applications and interviews. Some good and some not so good experiences.
  • 1 accepted a job offer which I start very soon. I'm very excited!
