No vlog? A blog post will have to suffice...

Hi everyone!

If you are wondering about my distinct absence from the video-blogging and just blogging in general, I hope you will understand just how busy I am with my thesis deadline not only imminently looming, but actually being moved forward by a week! And so, this is just a quick update to say I'm still alive and kicking.

  • Moved into the B&B, everything is fine, it's a nice homely terraced house where I have a room upstairs at the back opening out onto the roof of the ground floor :D
  • Thesis is getting there, it's full steam ahead to be done by this Friday (24th Sept)
  • Have organised a couple of speeches for when I'm back in NZ, but would like to get more planned out so I can fit everyone in this (NZ) Summer
  • Swansea Bay Rotary is going strong, had quite a successful (and fun!) bucket collection at the recent Proms in the Park concert, for the Lord Mayor's Charities. I really enjoyed it, and promised that if I'm anywhere in the UK next year I will come to Swansea to help out again! We also helped out as marshalls for the Alzheimers Society "Walk to Remember" yesterday in Singleton Park - it was great to see people supporting their friends and family
  • Off to the RC of Narberth and Whitland this Wednesday night for a club visit, will be lovely to see the members again as I did enjoy presenting to them earlier in the year, and will also be nice to be able to have a bit more time to talk with them
  • Photos of my holiday have not made it up yet, unfortunately - sorry!
And that's it folks! Once the thesis is in, I will start on my end-of-scholarship report, and hopefully try and get a last video up from this side of the world (don't worry, there will be more videos when I'm back in New Zealand).

Hope you are all well! Talk to you soon, I promise!
