2015

I haven't written a post in a while, nor for the new year, but that's mainly due to college work keeping me busy.

Today I went to an interview for a three week work placement at Moors Valley Country Park as part of my course. Things have slowed down a bit since starting college, and as much as I'd like to write about what I've been doing there - and that's quite a lot since September, with assignments and I.D Tests and so forth - again I just don't have the time. I can say I'm enjoying working on an investigative project, which forms the basis of the course and without which I can't pass. It's a student lead project, and I've decided to do an ethno/archaeobotany themed report/poster project. I'll probably post it when it's finished.

Aside from this, not much has happened in the way of traditional skills or anything of that sort. Mostly practical work has taken a back-seat to academic work. I am however doing conservation practicals every week.

Last year was such a busy year, but I don't expect I'll have much time to post here in 2015. I may do a monthly report.

Thanks.
