Into October

Been quite busy the last couple of weeks. More governor-y stuff for Ridgefield - I'm helping develop a new website (still in beta), and then I was just involved with the Head Teacher review, which was interesting, as I've not been part of that process before. Alas the training is not until next week, but I'm sure it will come in useful over the coming year.

Last weekend I went to the 20th (god I feel old) reunion dinner of my year at Fitzwilliam college. I think H was a little nervous, as she found the maths reunion dinner a couple of years ago quite intimidating. So being on the high table, next to the Master, was a bit of shock.

However it was actually really good - H got on well with the Master's wife, and I caught up with my former Director of Studies. We did see a few people who I remembered specifically from my year, but to be honest there weren't as many as I thought I might remember - probably, when I think about it, most of my friends at Cambridge were not in the same college as me.

Work is continuing to be very busy - we're just putting the finishing touches to the current release, but we also have maintenance releases going on at the same time, so I am being pulled in several directions.
