I don't really know why I've started this blog, but some of my friends think I have some good / strange / weird ideas which could / should be shared. Or maybe they just want to get me off their backs by keeping me busy on my computer! Whatever! Anyway, I've just started back at college (evening class only - 1 night, 3 hours per week)after a good many years out of formal education so mixing with a new and younger set of people seemed like a good time to start these ramblings. For the record, I'm doing GCSE Maths (even though I keep calling it "O Level"!) not for my work but for my own personal purposes. It was a little daunting last Tuesday walking in for the first time, not knowing who else would be there, or how many or how old. In the event, it was quite painless. There are about 15 of us in the class, and even though I'm easily the oldest (including the lecturer!) there are some others who have been out of school for a while. Got talking to one of the others after the lesson and she seems a very nice and very interesting girl. Next session is due on Tuesday, so I'll probably not post again until after then. I've no idea where this blog will go in the days / weeks to come, but it will be an interesting experience for me if nothing else.
