Today Alex started his traineeship at Froglife, making mornings even more complicated. Although their office is in Peterborough, it's a bit far to walk and requires two buses to get there. I dropped him off after a very easy journey as the roads were unusually quiet because of Eid.

It's also become apparent that there is currently no tutor assigned to two of his three Computer Science slots, which really isn't good enough in his A Level year. The college were supposed to be interviewing a candidate today, but he didn't turn up. So far only one person has applied, which doesn't bode well...
