I'm at a seminar this morning. It's not mine (flatmate!Natalie's), so I'm free to faff about. I'm therefore on my laptop .. well, hanging out on LJ, obviously. We're in this venue just behind the Ritz today, which is quite cool. It's hidden right away, but it's quite nice. It's a rabbit warren of a place though, loads of little interconnected rooms. I went for a wander earlier (working hard, as always), and found a little drawing room tucked away which looks over St James' Park. Nice.
Apart from that, things are fairly dull here at the moment. I'm sitting alone on the reception desk, while everyone else is in the seminar room listening to someone talk about education things. I'm fairly glad I'm not in there, though. At least out here I don't have to pretend to listen.
Still no news re: last week's interview, so I'm guessing it's a "no". Ah well. It was definitely a good experience, no matter how it turned out. I'm glad I went. I would like them to get back to me though, so at least I know for certain.
The driving lesson went well. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it might be, even though I was driving in a). the rain and b). the dark. My instructor is very patient and non-judgemental and was very full of praise, which works for me! I think it was mostly because I told him that I failed last time because of my total lack of confidence, but whatever. Knowing it's augmented praise doesn't make it work any less well - I'm shallow that way.
Right, they're clapping now. I might have to go and do some work.
Nah. ;P
