A first attempt

I suspect I will update this journal only very infrequently as I have never been much for keeping diaries and the like, and there really isn't much happening here at the moment.I have moved to guildford a few months ago and am still getting to know the place + my poor skills at meeting people mean I don't know that many people round here. I am working on remiding this but as I said not very good at it.I started Aikido two weeks ago which is proving interesting if slightly painful (too much arm twisting etc) but I am going to try and stick it out, since I have always wanted to learn a martial art and this is by far the most promising I have tried. I wish the class was on slightly earlier it must be said since hanging around work until 8 is a pain.Other than this I have been looking for hobbies, something to occupy my brain a bit thats not work:)Reading a lot, had to raid the kids section to find much worth reading at the surrey library last time, and watching plenty of films. Went to see "Big Fish" which is great, enjoyable and uplifting.I wish I could get the client program to install on my pc would make life easier, maybe I will eventually feel its worth the effort of installing all the dependencies but not for a while I suspect. I am having enough trouble getting my laptop to do what I want, looks like I am going to have to re-install the operating system, pain in the arse.Best do some work now I guess.
