Thanks, nightbird. I don't think my memory's any worse than it usually is , but distracted is likely - there's been a lot of new and different things happening lately. A few weeks ago I moved into a new flat, and I've had to set up accounts with the phone and utilities companies, register with a doctor and generally adjust to living away from home after being there all summer. I was in halls at university last year, but this is quite different! My sister is staying with me as a temporary flatmate (my actual flatmate won't be moving in until September), but she's going home on Friday because she has to go back to school, so then I'm going to be on my own for at least two weeks. I can't find a job (nobody seems to want someone who can only stay for a month and a half), but I'm going to volunteer instead so I can have some company and do something useful.
