I'm on a graduate scheme so don't have much say. I was hoping for Edinburgh this time around but unfortunately the majority of roles are in London. It'll be over by September though and I can have some more control over my life again...
Been having trouble with side effects from some steroids I've been put on - got quite twitchy and anxious plus suffering from muscle weakness and lethargy which messed up my second week climbing in Spain. I also seem to have picked up a minor elbow tweak. Found out today the consultant/pharmacy ballsed up and I was only meant to be on the roids for a week instead of the past month, meaning I needn't have had all this aggro. Quite chuffed that I haven't lost my rag about it though!

Some thieving mutha fuckers nicked and burnt out my pimp ass wheels in the early hours of Sunday morning (I guess the problem with having a ride as desirable as a leaking 1991 Micra is its a high value target)... Being worth no money and with me needing to dispose of it in the next few weeks anyway this was funny asuxh as annoying... Until it turns out it's a £250 quid recovery fee even if I don't want the fucker back!Fucking plebs.
Most expensive dessert ever. Sunday evening: I was celebrating a good weekend's efforts at Almscliff and the Depot with a date slice (from the farm shop near Almscliff). Crunched on a fragment of date stone and fractured a tooth. Got an emergency dental appointment which removed the fragment and put a temporary cap on the tooth - and was told that to save the tooth I will likely need root canal and a crown (and that is if it can be saved - follow-up appointment in a fortnight to see how the gum has healed). Unfortunately, I am not currently registered with an NHS dentist (a couple of years ago, my previous dentist removed me from its register - their email asking me to arrange a check up was spam filtered and I didn't realise until too late) . So, I am looking at a bill of around £1000 for private treatment... unless I can find a dentist actively taking new NHS patients.... the few I have found that are taking anyone at all, have 18-24 month waiting lists. Hey ho.... my own fault - I should have immediately put myself back on a waiting list when I became unregistered. But even so..... £1000 for eating a date fkking slice! I thought reducing my power/weight ratio was the worst I could expect!
