Not a lot to say!

...Well, that's not strictly true! I've been saying an awful lot over at www.torchwoodforum.co.uk but that's just fuelling the obsession and not something you'd want to hear here... Not in quite the fan-driven detail we go into on the forum! But still, whilst I'm ont he subject - this series (all two episodes so far!) has been great! Action packed, thoughtfull, well written... And of course, Ianto being, well...! This iamge says a lot!! <3


Of course, there are other events in my life that should really be taking priority!

Life goes on, though strangely in some respects, following Nan's funeral. It was a traumatic day - one that had already been dubbed the worst day of the year by sociologists... Being just the wrong distance from Xmas, with bad weather and such... Well, it certainly felt like it! D did a great job of driving in the most appalling conditions whilst I just numbly tripped through the day. The finality of it hit me hard in church and again at the crematorium. It was such a shame she couldn't have attended the after-party! It was her kind of event with so many family members in one room!

I was graciously given Compassionate leave from work. Not always awarded for family other than siblings, children and parents! Of course, Nana was closer than most grandparents! Besides which, my sick record for the previous year was excellent (no days off recorded in 2007!) Shame that I've now got two sick days in 2008! I was off yesterday, for reasons you won't want to know...!

Starting the new job on Monday - have emailed many folk in anticipation of meeting up with them to discuss their role, their expectations and the running of the ward / speciality! For those who've asked, I'm a little reluctant to state exactly which speciality as there's only one ward for it in Leicester... It'd place me exactly if I let on! Neurology has several wards so I could remain a little distanced from my direct whereabouts! I'm still a little cautious about details online, despite having a Facebook, Myspace and Blog for all to peruse!

Have taken more photo's the other day - this time at Ashby Castle... I've printed a few drafts and will start to add a little post-production work shortly... Keep your eyes peeled!

Finished one of my Xmas books - Chart Throb by Ben Elton! Very funny, parodying the Talent(less) Shows that have dominated weekend entertainment recently! Whilst I've read better books by him, this doesn't mean that Chart Throb isn't good - just that some of his other work has been even better! I'd certainly recommend this, despite it being a little repetitive in places, it doesn't bore!

There... For someone with not a lot to say I've certainly said a lot! Jxx
