My flatmate Lotte is going to do a skydive for charity - The Big Issue - on the 3rd of March (http://www.justgiving.com/lottewebb). Somehow jumping out of a plane at 10,000 feet is not something I've ever contemplated doing, but I'm happy to cheer her on!
Having a job interview the day before the college breaks for half-term has meant that I need to wait until next week before hearing anything from them which is slightly frustrating. On the other hand I've started volunteering for the Richmond Environment Network. I volunteered expecting to help out in the office and do little things like that, but actually I've been given the opportunity to start (almost from scratch) working on the children and youth side, i.e. develop and support work going on in the ENTIRE borough. So, I'm going to have to pretend I know what I'm doing. Should be fun!
Our washing machine is refusing to open the door so there's a whole load stuck inside at least until tomorrow. Oh well, it's been a good excuse to borrow a towel off our neighbour (a new experience for sure).
UPDATE - Nobody can come to fix it until Monday 11am so the wet laundry will be in the machine all weekend!

About Me
- fools' cap
- London. That's where I've now found myself after four years in Swansea. I'm drifting - with my eyes wide open and getting involved in what I can.

You know, Maria, that just about everyone who did the parachute jump for Mutende, said they loved it and would do it again. (It didn't convince me though!)
Your washing will be horrid by the time it gets out! Poor you.
The community cfae has been running this week with the emphasis on parents and young children. It's been busy and noisy! But it seems to fill a niche.
