A few quick jottings on today

I had my first IR of the Developing World seminar today (notes), which was quite interesting. Later, I tried unsuccessfully to get the St. Antony’s washing machines to work for me. Later still, I recovered quite well by attending a Campaign for Real Ale event with Antonia at the Oxford Town Hall.

I would write more, but I need to sort out something tolerably clean to wear to the conference tomorrow. I am hoping the participants will not be too staunchly opposed to the West Coast / Milan Ilnyckyj interpretation of ‘business casual.’ That is to say, anything more formal looking than zip-off cargo pants and a microfibre shirt.

PS. Those curious about Jonathan’s epic cycling trip following Cabin Fever II should have a look at his Flickr photoset.

Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
