I was so very impressed by the number of students who want to do work experience with me this year. Then I discovered the sad, sad truth. My work has been listed in the wrong place on the guidelines, so every kid with a vague experience in computers or who doesn't know what they want to do is ringing, mainly out of desperation. When someone rings now, I ask them what sort of work they wanted and then explain what I actually do. Most times, when I say "It's very hard work" I get "Thanks" and they go away. The other times, we've found out that my trip gets in the way a bit.

This means that there will be no work experience student this year, in all probability, which is a great pity. I was looking forward to sharing the proof-reading.
