It feels like January flew past in a flash – 31 days gone with little to show for it.
Of course it didn’t, but thats just how it felt because some things I should have done I didn’t, however there were some good bits too! This could also be said for 2015 – boy did that year go quick! Looking back now its hard to remember what happened month to month to be able to say whether I got stuff done, and so its hard to say just whether 2015 was productive.
With that in mind I am going to try and write a monthly review to help me see what I am (consistently) failing and just what I am doing to pass my time. Not sure on the format and I’ll work on it through the year but the main things I am going to note monthly are three main areas: Work (job), Fitness, and Study.
The aim is hopefully spur myself into action by publishing my success! Not an aspiring start though however that means things can only get better!!! (of course thats bollox).

Met with Norsk regarding a possible job in their new east midlands operation (this lead to a formal interview to be had in February).
Weekend in Cheltenham – weekend away at a good friends – played lots of boardgames: Terra Mystica and Tzolk’in were both new to me and both good games!
Spent one morning searching and applying for other jobs.
