I reckon this is as valid for a typing test as it is for a speaking one, of intoxication. Dismisseth is as big a bugger to type as it is to say when you've had a few. I would suggest. God is good. NEECU does a CEF related assessment and evaluation. 1st ever to do this. It's a wee peach of a thing for a subject-hungry language tester and critical pedagogue. It's also a thing to be left until the drinks's gone. In despite of which, one might like to consider... The origin of IELTS dominance with UK universities. When? At NEECU, what materials were used before? [Hobby fucking horse?] Go down to the micro-level, subtextual even, with every fucking phoneme of their descriptors. That might be the point of a CDA - where the ALTE > DIALANG CAN DO s are the fuck taking us. (And the history thereof). It's a fucking cracker.

We get two days induction, which is quite an interesting investment on NEECU's part, and means one goes into the actual teaching next week with a fair idea of what's what, as opposed to the usual vague emails and first morning classroom debacles. The other teachers all seem ok, except for the usual middle-aged TEFL lady who pretended, over a coffee first thing, that she couldn't understand the name of my accommodation block, "Pine", because of my accent. I bit-off a reply about hoping her students speak more clearly than me, and said (somewhat peevishly, looking back), that I hadn't lived in the north east for most of my life so my accent co...

...then you must get my mate Daniel to do the photos. That's quite a good advert for what's likely to be a small demographic, New York based Avenue readers, planning their Big Day. But every little helps. And he's very good.

5th Roll 12 , originally uploaded by Pig Sty Avenue . 5th roll with the good agfa isolette, that is. Not bad, eh? Getting to the sort of look I'm after. This is HP5+. Next, in the camera now on frame 10, is ADOX 50.

...is what I'll need for the ADOX films. Here's a recipe .
