In Merry Old England #
random, September 20th 2007

Last Sunday I moved to Leiceister, UK — though only for till the end of the year: my partner has an honorary research fellowship for the fall term here, in the De Montfort University.

Last week has been chaotic and rather stressful: it turns out that almost no-one in the UK is happy with taking tenants for less then 6 months; the hotel internet is a bad joke; we both have sore throats and have been feeling a bit feverish. ...but things are settling down. We did find a place to live, and can move in next tuesday, and I have found a decent internet cafe to work from — essential as our place will not be connected until some time in October.

So, if there is anyone in the area who feels like saying hello, feel free to drop me a line.
