The Search for Robin Hood
July 27, 2013
Three years in Nottingham and I had been an awful tourist; no jumper tied around the waist, no asking the locals to take my picture in front of the Castle and no sightings of Robin Hood! To be fair I was pretty sure Mr Hood had taken up his retirement and started selling jacket potatoes in …
University Blues
July 21, 2013
It’s all quiet on the home front. Well of course there is always something to do but after weeks of counting down til the end of term I’m already counting down til the start of the next term. Since being home I’ve caught up with friends but being stranded in the Shire without a car …
So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye
July 19, 2013
Hello, and welcome to my final blog. *wipes away tear* My 3 years at University have ended, and what amazing three years they have been! I still remember my very first day – a bit overwhelming meeting so many new people and realising that Nottingham was my new home for the next few years. Not …

Farewell
June 23, 2013
There are according to a thesaurus I just found 12 common variants of the word Goodbye, including swan song, ‘Ollie Steels’ swan song blog’ might be a bit too dramatic but it has a good ring to it. Luckily for me it’s not going to be my swan song nor godspeed or goodbye. It’s farewell …

Gemma the Explorer
June 21, 2013
It’s so strange to think that today is my last ever day in Nottingham (bar coming back for a day next week for a wedding.) Still have packing to do, but nearly there. A bit late after having 3 years to accomplish this, but my housemate and I finally hopped on the bus to make …
