No subject - can't think

As my three months of unemployment finally comes to an end I am starting to think I haven't actually done ANYTHING with it - though what exactly I can do with no money in the middle of green belt subtopia is beyond me. I've been stealing from my holiday fund to keep myself amused.

I had a cheap day yesterday though. A bus trip (£1.60), a train journey to Oxford (£7.90) and lots of free things like The Oxford Uni Natural History Museum and the Pitt Rivers Museum. I got to see a tranatuala eating wasp which was HUGE! Fortunately only a resident of South America so big sigh of relief there. Saw some hissing cockroachs as well, live ones, though I couldn't hear them to know if they did hiss. Ate nice ice cream and came home only for the trains to be a nightmare and miss the last bus home. Had to phone my mum and grovel for a lift.

Off to Nottingham on Saturday to see Carol, who I haven't seen since Xmas. Going with Helen who I spent the weekend with in Bournemouth. Hopefully a cheap weekend -one bottle of red wine should do the trick.

Start my job at Ottakars on Monday. Am looking forward to an interesting job and some responsibility!!!
