Going home
It’s nearly time to go home!
It’s a bit of a fixed bag of feelings. On one hand, it’ll be fantastic to return home and see everyone again and talk to northerners with
Still, keeping to the point. Well, there is no point so I’m not sure where this rambling might lead – part of the fun I suppose.
I’m halfway through packing as I sit and type this, which is alright to know. Surprising how bare these rooms can look though after 8 weeks of seeing a Ferrari flag on the wall. It’s not too sad a thing though; at least my packing looks vaguely successful.
The conference on the future of energy was fascinating. The problem is so wide ranging and so ridiculously hard to solve, especially considering the world we live in. We’re going to need a mix of all the options, nuclear fission, oil, gas, coal, solar, wind, tidal, wave, hydro, biomass, fusion, hydrogen – literally everything we can get our hands on and make work to a vaguely satisfactory level and cost. Otherwise, we’re all going to be destroyed by global warming. The future of the planet lies in our hands, and the decision we make now will change the planet permanently for every future generation of the human race. It’s a scary thought, but too true a thought to contemplate for a serious amount of time.
And on that gloriously happy note, I’ll leave things there. Be sure to know about the big Christmas Meet-Up on Wednesday 21st December in The Lion of Vienna at 7pm. It should be a good night of relaxed fun.
See you all soon. I come home on Sunday!

Glad to hear you've enjoyed your first intense, if somewhat shorter, first semester at university and be sure to know that the Mancunian and Boltonian accents cannot be beaten...only by an elegant Spanish accent perhaps! Damn, it does sound good.
Looking forward to the meet-up at the Lion of Vienna too.
Or perhaps a slinky French one.
