Back in Cambridge

Sitting on a train heading in to the centre of Cambridge ready for my third day working for the university. I feel the circle is complete!

I started this blog many many years ago whilst working for a journal in Cambridge feeling desperate to leave. There have been so many adventures, house moves, lovers, friends festivals books read, courses completed, broken bones and hearts in that time, much of them written here but oh I have been negligent! This blog has been abandoned forgotten returned to briefly and only received maybe a yearly update for way too long.

I will try to return and fill in a few gaps

Starting with why I am on this train. I started work last week for the accommodation office. I have a bicycle to ride and am certain my fitness will be incredible very soon!! Just now its a bit of a shock to the system!! Thanks goodness Cambridge is flat!! Ok i am 3 days into the job but so far it seems quite lovely! I have met people from all over the world, cycled miles and had great long meandering conversations with work colleagues! All I need now is to be paid and  life will be vastly improved. This is a temp job.

As I am now 60 I am completely unemployable and despite completing a vast number of job applications I haven't even had a whisper.of an interview! So it's back to temping and if it's what I have to do for the next 6 years then fair enough!!
Right the train is pulling in to C must put my phone away and wander in to town.
