Summary of one long week...
Sep. 25th, 2004 04:44 amWell, first lesson of the day is to always, always check inside of the mug before you pour the milk. Because if not, you run the risk of finding a drowning spider bobbing about under your nose when you lift said mug to drink... yurgh!
Started doing some voluntary work at our local Oxfam shop. Turned out to be great fun. If rather sobering. On my first day I met a Russian lady who had worked there for 18 years. She and her husband had come to England after they had both been sentenced to two years in labour camps. And on my second day I met a lovely man who turned out to have left Rwanda eight years ago. Apart from a cousin in Sweden, this man is all that is left of his family, who were all wiped out during the war. So yes. Very glad I went there.
( For those of you who want to know just how *that* chicken turned out... )
I have also started looking into this 'personal mood theme' thing. The key point seems to be that you need your own webspace to upload said pics to. Erm... Anyone know where's a good and ideally not too pricey place to get some of that? Is bandwidth something important for this?
