Work today, in as a swap for Lorraine who works on the other side - granting me access to their nibbles table, which today had luxury chocolate biscuits :D

Cathy stopped me on my way to coffee break and said "You were at David Essex, then." I confirmed I was; she said she'd been there too, we agreed on what a great performance he'd delivered and I told Cathy she should have come up and said hello. She explained she'd only got a brief glimpse of me.

Passing the swap board, I saw someone called Naomi, from the other side, was wanting to swap out of next Monday and onto next Thursday. I'm free next Monday - I had a feeling me ma and I were down to attend something in the daytime, but it was definitely the sort of thing she can do alone - so I asked Marilyn which one was Naomi, and she sent me over to her. When I showed Naomi the swap request that I'd taken off the board, and she realised I was able to do the swap, she was over the moon :)

The bus home from Fareham was snarled up in traffic most of the way - turned out to be caused by roadworks, making the traffic coming in each direction wait alternately at lights. Didn't get home till after 4.

College this evening. When I arrived Joan said my exam "looked all right to her" - now I just have to bring the entry fee next week so she'll send it off to the examiners.

Joan gave me and Pam, who's also starting spreadsheets now, a little tutorial, including a couple of tips that weren't in the textbook. I did fine on the first couple of practice spreadsheet exercises, though Joan had to show me a trick to get all of a 'formulae' spreadsheet to go on one page without changing the column widths on the master sheet. Anne and Pam both got me to help them out with their exercises while Joan was out of the room :)
