Not working:
Managed to find lots of jobs to apply for -- now all I need to do is, er, apply for them. This is always the hard bit. Fortunately several of them are the sensible sort where you can just send a CV and a covering letter, rather than trying to cram details into a badly-designed application form.
I also sorted out a few more clothes to sell -- stuff that no longer fits me, stuff that never suited me, and stuff that I just don't think I'll ever wear. Having browsed eBay's clothes section a bit though it doesn't look like selling clothes on eBay is terribly successful, so I'm not really sure where to advertise them. (I haven't had much success with shifting clothes on ucam.adverts.* in the past, either.) None of the stuff I'm selling is likely to make much money, so minimum effort preferred...
Minor matters:
I was determined to find time to wash

Helped
Oh, and for no particular reason (except mangoes being cheap-ish at Tesco) I had a go at making mango lassi. It came out a bit weird -- not really tasting much of mango, for a start. It just tastes of slightly sharp and faintly fruity yoghurt, really. I suspect that the (American) recipe expected "plain yoghurt" to be sweetened; maybe next time I'll try that. Or just make it up as I go along and add more stuff until it tastes the way it's meant to. :-)

Since
Still loads of things I didn't manage to do of course. Like getting in touch with all the people I owe emails to. Part of the problem is if people say "Let's meet up some time!" the answer tends to be "That would be good, but the next time I'm free is some time in October", and that just sounds rude. Mind you no email is probably ruder. :-/
