I apologise to anyone who’s been slavishly awaiting my next post (that is to say, I have no regrets). I went back home to the great capital of the United Kingdom of Engerland etc. to have my summer holidays. Somehow this feels a little obsolete when being at university is so like a long extended holiday, apart from those ‘tricky’ exam things, but I’m enjoying it nonetheless.

I’ve taken the opportunity to brush up on my culinary skills in a clean and relatively hygienic environment, and also to do some exercise (not very strenuous, I should add). Because of all of this free time - holidays run from the start of June to the end of September - I shall also be working on new designs for bigguybigcity.com, and new marketing ideas. Soon we will be a truly global empire!

In a week’s time I’m going to Cyprus: an event that I look to with some trepidation. It’s 28 degrees celsius here at the moment, and I’m sweating like the proverbial pig. I dread to think how my skin, which is a whiter shade of pale, will cope with 35 degrees.. Despite this, there should be plenty of nice Roman, Greek, and Byzantine ruins to visit on the island. That is what people do in Cyprus isn’t it?

Ahem
