By tim, on February 26th, 2011 at 9:46 pm So far this year I seem to be spending a lot of time away from home. Specifically, I seem to be spending a lot of time working from our Bracknell office – it was 3 days last week and 4 days this week. Inevitably, I spend a fair amount of time at hotels in and around the area. While there’s a Travelodge right next to our building (which is great if you need a short commute time and the staff are friendly there), I prefer somewhere that has a few more home comforts if I’m honest.

By tim, on September 12th, 2010 at 2:30 pm I’ve been finishing off TMA06 and attempting to get down to some revision this weekend, with a mixed amount of success as the rest of the household seems to be in chaos. I’ve also got the gloomy thought of having to drive down to Bracknell later on as yet again, I’m starting my working week there. As I’m leading a training course for the salespeople first thing in the morning, I’ve decided that the only way I can be awake enough to make it worth their while is to sacrifice my Sunday evening and drive down to the luxury Bracknell . . . → Read More: DD303 TMA06 and more thoughts on revision
By tim, on September 6th, 2010 at 9:53 pm I apologise for giving this post such a terrible pun as a title, but I’m stuck for a couple of evenings in the luxury Bracknell Travelodge and it seems funny to me after a beer and probably the very worst cheeseburger I’ve eaten in, well, ever.
The food at the OUPS revision weekend at Warwick University was very much better (a constant topic of conversation being how much better it was than at the Bath University residential school) as was the company. It was great to bump into people from residential school, my tutor group and those I’d only ever . . . → Read More: OUPS I did it again …
By tim, on September 3rd, 2009 at 9:00 pm I picked up Huffty from Beechdale, the Alfa dealers in Derby at lunchtime on Tuesday. She looked absolutely gorgeous in the showroom and I was very happy when I drove her away. The first trip was a little under 2 miles, back to the office. And then the heavens opened. And they seem to have stayed open ever since. So even with less than 200 miles on the clock she’s filthy. She needs a good wash so I can take pictures of her before someone runs a supermarket trolley into her!
So something else to do this weekend along with . . . → Read More: Huffty – First Impressions
By tim, on April 15th, 2009 at 7:50 pm I’ve only got a small part of TMA02 left to complete now, but it’s been in that state for a few days now. Last night and tonight I’ve sat down at my computer with good intentions, but somehow I still haven’t quite managed to finish it. I’ve been so desperate to avoid doing it tonight that I’ve spent my time registering for next year’s course, DD303 on cognitive psychology, instead of just getting on with the assignment. Sigh.
Still, tomorrow night I won’t have any excuse for not finishing it off as I’ll be in the luxury Software AG dormitory, . . . → Read More: Avoiding TMA02
