Hmmmm Well KPMG didnt work out, quite glad of that to be honest. Passed verbal reasoning online tests, but my numeracy wasnt up to standard.... Might try to get a PWC applic in before xmas but not in a particular hurry. Will leave P&G, EU and the travel/tourism jobs till January, ruled everything else out for the foerseeable future - got too much else to think about. Thinking might do another assistantship next year (this time in France)to bring me some money, get me abroad, speaking a foreign language and give me a little extra time and less pressure to sort out what comes next.

Was also thinking of interpreting & translation or translation & professional language skills MA at Bath, but not sure bout that now, given how appallingly I did in my french interpreting mock today. Apparently Im in danger of not doing myself justice....hope I pull myself together before the real thing!!!

So, last tuesday night house got broken into - lost 3 laptops, 4 cameras, a video camera, an ipod, a jumper, a belt and a bottle of aftershave! Found out the next day the the police had installed security cameras inside our house 18 months ago, but they werent on.

Last thurs was the LBS xmas party, I went as a very convincing Santa Claus, had my span int mock on fri (which went a hell of a lot better than my french!). Fri night I attempted to watch Mad for Ballroom with Tom but it was a bit crap. Saturday was Anna's bday, so we went to Belle & Herbs for a ridiculously large brunch, then in the eve we had takeaway (again, a stupid amount) and went to As you like it and WHQ. Yesterday did work and went to Anna's old housemates' house briefly in the eve.

Have worked hard today, working ahrd all week except for wednesday gniht when its the MLS xmas party.

Poor you, these things always seem to happen to you don't they. I hope everything was insured. It was good to see you last weekend even if it was only briefly. I'll let you know when I'm next going to be in Newcastle. Have a great Xmas xx
