Easter Break To-do List

I've had a lovely few days not really doing anything - Easter it's self Pete had off and we spent yesterday in the house, catching up on telly, making websites and raising a bottle or two to zombie Jesus - we haven't yet eaten the chocolate Buzz lightyears but the Tesco finest eggs made a very fine breakfast. I also made Sophie Dahl's yummy veggie cottage pie - her cookbook is in the post and I've already promised myself to be productive on my days off.

So, taking a leaf out of our Game's Tech Staff only Ning I'm going to write a to-do list on here and cross it off as I go:
  • Finish tidying my Study
  • Finish tidying the Elvis Suite
  • Become the 8th best assassin on No More Heroes
  • Make biscuits & cake using the tins and cutters I got for Christmas but haven't tried yet
  • Dig out the antique sink in the garden, clean it off, move it to the front and plant flowers in it
  • Weed the front while I'm at it
  • Use my EA Personal Trainer every morning for an hour
  • Do the bits and pieces I need to do for work (I know I'm holiday but so it goes)
Now the train strike's been averted I'm off to the State of Independence conference - since my other conferences this year have been thwarted I'm really looking forward to this one. It is an early start but Jess is travelling up with me so it should be fun!

Good day at the office..

... Had the first of two weekend open days in Feb (there's a bunch of Wednesdays ones too) and it's deep in Interview season. Today consisted of 2 very bouncy talks on our awesome portfolio of awards, a big mac meal wolfed down in a couple of mins and between us we interviewed around 40 students (and some of them were very, very good - next years intake is looking awesome) Not much else, Pete has the Bear & Pheasant tonight so I'm going to put my feet up, watch The Clone Wars DVD that turned up and relax a bit. I'm currently full of chocolate, marshmallows and white citrus tea, having watched the last part of The Art of Russia - making me want to go back to Russia and wishing I'd have been a bit freeier too explore when I was there. One day I'll go back, take Pete, learn to tell the difference between sour cream and mayonnaise and stay away from the cabbage dumplings, especially for breakfast. But it's been a very busy week - got invited down to an awes...
