Blue Robin?

I never knew these birds existed.

And...

I'm going to see the Saw Doctors at Sheffield Octagon tonight.

Then I'll write my essays. Promise.

So long...So lazy...

Ellen left a comment on the last post after I commented at her blog, Brain Lint (which, by the way, is rather good). She's right of course, I HAVEN'T posted in forever. And I've been doing so many bloggable things.

Maybe that's the point...I'm too busy doing stuff to write about it!

No, perhaps I'm just a big lazy layabout. Yep, that'd be it.

So, what have I been doing since the middle of October?

Starting the 2nd year of my MSc (and failing miserably to get any work done. See above re. layabout)
Nearly fainting and throwing up at Sheffield Station
Walking and wild camping in the Lake District -twice - Blencathra via Scales Tarn and Sharp Edge and Helvellyn via Grizedale Tarn (bloody windy and horrid rain)
Cycling on the Tissington Trail
Pruning (read savaging) the roses and other garden pottering
Greenland Expedition Evening - his sister went to Greenland in July
Signing up for Snow & Ice (Scotland) and the Alps trip (West Lancs Scouts Mountaineering Group). The things I let him convince me to do...
WLSMG Peak Meet
Buying a down jacket. So warm...
Seeing Ladysmith Black Mambazo at the Phil

And I'm sure there's more. No wonder I haven't written my essays yet.
