Up at 0530 -0545 to get ready, eat, shower etc and leave the house by 0625, walk to the station, catch the train which is at 0700, 39 minute journey on the train then get the next tram which will take about 25 minutes and then a 10 minute walk to college! Normally the train is 0725 and takes 50 minutes but because there is a strike its just a shuttle service calling at a few stations only. Early enough? -- David |

I get the impression that gremlin deserves to have people queueing up begging to pay him to work for them, compared with some of the other people around. What's your subject, gremlin? Can I give you one piece of advice from experience: always use a cushion to kneel on! Even if it means having to crawl all the way back out of the roof to fetch it. JGH |

The subject is Building Services Engineering, I will hopefully be covering all aspects of it such as design, tendering, commissioning, project management etc. I have already had a few days work experience at the place, I was mostly in the office doing things like calculating what pump size is needed, fan pressures etc for a building which was not yet complying with Part L. All very interesting stuff -- David |

Bled in the right colour? Jumped at the right time:-) A few cuts and bruises but nothing serious.
