Monthly Archives: November 2009. November 15, 2009 · 9:43 pm. A guide to Interrailing around Europe. I haven’t posted anything on this site for absolutely ages – mainly because I was lucky enough to spend the summer interrailing across Europe. So I thought I’d mark my triumphant return to the blogosphere with a bit of a guide to interrailing and a little bit of information on all the places we visited…. The Rough Guide (along with Kim’s Lonely Planet guide) gave us a really good of what to see in e...

The Wire: Top 40 Characters: 25-21. The Wire: Top 40 Characters: 20-16 →. April 7, 2009 · 6:07 pm. My Job Interview at Adfero. As a change from my countdown of Wire characters, a task more Herculean than I envisaged when I first started it, I thought I’d write a quick review of my First Ever Proper Job Interview (hereto referred to as FEPJI), which took place today in Manchester. The first proper stage of the application process (after sending them a CV and covering letter) was to write up two 200 word s...

Philip Larkin essay | Pop Culture Picks
https://chrisburn.wordpress.com/2008/12/01/philip-larkin-essay
It’s back…. Philip Larkin →. December 1, 2008 · 7:37 pm. Larkin continued with the job throughout his working life, despite no financial imperative to do so. In 1984, the year before his death, he even turned down the office of Poet Laureate. The manifesto of the ‘Movement’, to which Larkin ascribed, equated to a refusal to abandon a rational structure and comprehensible language, even when the verse is most highly charged with sensuous or emotional intent. [3]. This is perhaps one of Larkin’s most optim...
