A Postcard From Another Visa Limbo
During the last one, I was apparently craving all aspects of British culture, good and bad. This time, I'm developing a worrying interest in afternoon TV, especially Doctors, and beginning to plan a sub-tropical monsoon climate balcony.
Plans for the zero maintenance wildlife garden having now been abandoned, I can take the borage, evening primrose and tobacco plant seeds.

ReplyDeleteBerk, indeed. Fiona watches it, and that's what got me started. But now I watch it when she's away at work. This is ConDem Britain for you.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck, however long to stay. I thought two months in China was long enough for me. Way the global economy is at the minute, I might be wrong.
ReplyDeleteYup, with all the cuts in FE and HE, and now this insane cap on non-EU students, EFL in the UK is effectively buggered.
