Memo to self: buy an umbrella

When I left the flat this morning I spotted a notice advising residents that Thames TV was filming an episode of The Bill in my area all day Monday. How cool.

It’s really belting it down outside. If it rained any harder I’d need gills to breathe. Unimpressed.

Got a brand new teaching pack to make at work now - something about mathematics in medical imaging. The challenge is making that look fun, because it certainly doesn’t sound it.

I’m feeling creative, I think I’ll break out the easel and paints at the weekend. I haven’t painted for about 4 months now, though having said that I’d gone about 6 years prior to that. My last painting was a somewhat-unsuccessful attempt at the Northern Lights. I used Interference acrylic paints, which give a shimmering effect and reflect light at different angles. In theory it should have turned out great. Unfortunately, it didn’t - I painted over the Interference with black and it made the black shimmer too, which is really stupid considering I was trying to paint a silhouette.

I just found out I’m being moved to a small desk on the second floor. Great.
