Another Derwent Water

Evening starts to fall on Derwent Water

Helm Crag

The lion and the lamb (and me). Not too far from the summit of Helm Crag in the Lake District.

2011

It’s one of those classic interview questions ‘where do you see yourself in five years time?’ and I think i’ve finally found my stock answer, ‘no idea’.

Once again the year is drawing to a close and for something like the third or fourth year running I have found my career developing on an unexpected tangent despite still being with the same company i’ve been with for ten years.

This year’s tangent has had me once again doing something I never thought i’d be able to do or get the chance to, and i’ve had two big projects to work on, both of which are still ongoing and one of which has taken up a huge amount of time and energy, hence the total lack of updates. There has also been a lack of picturesque photos taken over the year as well, so there haven’t been many pictures to put up on the blog.

Hopefully next year will be a year of sitting back a little bit and enjoying the fruits of this year’s labours, but who knows, I’m just going to try and go with the flow and see where it takes me, it’s certainly been an interesting ride so far.

To finish off the post I thought i’d include some of the few photos that got taken over this last year, hopefully there will be more next year. As to whether the blog will get more regular updating, we’ll have to wait and see what next year brings.

beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

 

Work is taking up more of my time at the moment and it will hopefully lead to something positive and (to me) exciting, but it does mean that spending time updating the blog is not near the top of my to do list. Normal service will resume at some point but till then any photo updates will appear occasionally on flickr @ http://www.flickr.com/photos/mark217/
