2nd May:
Amazingly, it's not only been a bank holiday, but the sky has been this colour all day! This was taken in the back garden and isn't really representative of my day (apart from the blue sky), but this morning I had a job interview* (I decided against asking the panel to pose for the camera before I left) and this afternoon we sort of meant to go and explore a local country park but in the end didn't get beyond the tip, Halfords and Sainsbury's. So I took this just now before the sun goes down and the blue sky disappears. I wonder if the pigeon is the ****** that crapped on my washing the other week (the washing line is just below).
* the interview went OK, but I could hear my voice shaking as I spoke and it took ages to calm down, so I'm really not sure how I came across. I'm not hugely confident I got the job, of course I thought of a good few things I should have said while I was driving home, but think that shaky voice notwithstanding I didn't make a fool of myself and acquitted myself well enough overall. I should hear by the end of the week.
1st May:
This represents the joys of interview preparation. The job involves working with vulnerable people, so I had to fill in the pages and pages of an Disclosure Scotland form (the Scottish equivalent of the CRB check).
30th April:
Our final stop on our holiday before heading for the ferry home was to see my friend S, who left London for Northern Ireland just after I left London for Glasgow. This is a picture of Anoushka, her cat, who is a real character. I don't think she's quite realised she's not a leopard - her movements are astonishingly big cat-like.
29th April:
Whilst people were glued to the Royal Wedding, we were at another wedding: HD's brother got married on the same day as the royal wedding. It was an absolutely lovely day. The weather was perfect all day, the ceremony was beautiful, it was fantastic to catch up with family members, the kids were all lovely, and of course the happy couple looked amazing. I have chosen a blurred picture as they do not read this blog; I really like this picture though as although it is blurred you can still see how they are gazing at each other and for this moment there's nobody else in the world, just the two of them.
