Despite full days working at the Institute I have still had time to work on my beloved RA. Bruce has worked hard on a new website http://www.radioaquitaine.org/ It's a lot brighter and engaging. Liam (SIREN/FM) is still working on automating the scheduling software (thank you). Eric has just sent me his first program (can't wait to listen). Clive is holding up the flag at the University in Perigueux, assisted by Clotilde and Marie-Dominique - merci bien. I've excitedly (well it excites me anyway) been logging into the radio computer in Perigueux from Australia. It works beautifully; isn't technology a wonderful thing...
In an effort to curb my frustration at not being able to return to France I'm devouring books - on the train going to and from work, working at my slow computer, in the bank, anywhere really. The wonderful world you're drawn to provides the escape you can't find in reality, until you return to where you really want to be. My favourites so far - Greg Mortenson, "Three Cups of Tea" and Derick Bell, "Ethical Ambition". Truly inspirational stories when you find you can't get out of bed in the morning, providing a rudder during difficult times.
