£930
So, the Council Tax people have realised I haven’t paid any for 18 months, and I now owe them £930.
This could be… awkward….

Ambivalence
I’ve got word back from Durham: apparently I am their reserve choice (and apparently the preferred applicant turns the offer down more often than you’d think).
I knew I should have arranged to go on a date when I wouldn’t have been so shattered….
But, yes, I’m feeling rather ambivalent about the whole thing. Intellectually, I want to do a PhD. Socially, I would love to stay in Manchester. And financially, of course, I’d like to have money. (Um, would that be amtrivalent, then?)
The 3rd aspect is leading me to considering seriously something that I previously rejected outright: actuarial work. Michael Hall has been making frequent suggestions on the banter list that someone should join his company, and a part of me is definitely thinking that if I can’t go for what I want academically I should just go for the money and use it to fulfil myself in whatever ways money lets you.
Of course, that would involve moving to Croyden….
Oh, and here’s some poker stats for you all to enjoy! (Or… not)
