You know, I never thought of the Tube as eco-friendly, but I suppose you're right. Personally I prefer to walk everywhere, but walking an hour and a half from the train station to work wasn't practical :-) hope yoi're well!Afternoon Tea Breakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447123879264117463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-12885124350333786992009-06-09T23:47:38.020+01:002009-06-09T23:47:38.020+01:00Wow ... it sounds like your new job is fascinating...Wow ... it sounds like your new job is fascinating and tiring and exhilarating. As I read your account, a couple of things came to mind ... the first was that taking the tube is so Eco-friendly. I wish we had something like it here (North Carolina, U.S.). The second thing that I was struck by was how things seem to come to us when we need them. It seemed all but impossible to get the information you needed and then ... there it was! Fabulous!<br /><br />Thanks for the updates ... and continued best wishes!<br /><br />Small Footprints<br />http://reducefootprints.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18323775808390175925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-39805867479369808242009-06-09T16:39:19.135+01:002009-06-09T16:39:19.135+01:00Great update...and I gotta say...I love music on t...Great update...and I gotta say...I love music on the subway..make the time pass a little more quickly!Optimistic Pessimisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629722877426063916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-30861219906350876492009-06-09T09:10:23.630+01:002009-06-09T09:10:23.630+01:00Hiya Laura!

I was hoping to provide as much insight as possible - too often careers advice documents simply don't tell you enough of what a job is REALLY like, and despite all the things I've read on journalism, there were still some things about the role I didn't know. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to know!Afternoon Tea Breakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447123879264117463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-67321905127392092062009-06-09T04:28:29.088+01:002009-06-09T04:28:29.088+01:00I love these updates!

I feel like this whole experience could be a book in itself - or a classroom in which I'm getting a behind the scenes look some of the real life aspects of journalism. Keep them coming - love reading them!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15553968052620885462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-68341700079687359532009-06-09T00:53:13.456+01:002009-06-09T00:53:13.456+01:00Good grief!

There's some really sick people around, and that's an understatement.<br /><br />I'm with you on that one - I hope the Tube strikes are called off tomorrow as well! Normally Tube strikes don't affect me as I walk everywhere, but this place is a bit too far for me to walk. I've got the bus there before and it takes ages, so the Underground really is my only option. I agree, travelling outside of "rush hour" is far more pleasant.<br /><br />Mind you, if you need to be on the Tube at 6:30AM tomorrow... how come you're still out of bed?!?! :-DAfternoon Tea Breakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447123879264117463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355486232698307547.post-3379467282003161492009-06-09T00:40:48.401+01:002009-06-09T00:40:48.401+01:00That's great they've got you writing up ar...That's great they've got you writing up articles on your placement - good for you! Is it helping you decide on what to do? I am on the tube at 6:30 so the other side of the rush hour which is equally as peaceful! I hope the strikes are called off tomorrow!<br /><br />On the morbid front, did you read about the 20 year old who was randomly killed by that 50 year old man for no reason? Sometimes I wonder how much of what is printed in the Metro can be true... Good luck with your final week!Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10869507549443474002noreply@blogger.com
