A beginning...
I can't find my keys. Clearly, they can't be far away as I'm in the house and no one else let me in. I should probably be in bed too, given the early hours of the radiopharmacy, but I'm too distracted, by this blog, partly.
Anyway, I've decided to blog. It scares me slightly, the fact that it seemingly becomes a matter of public record, but mostly that it reminds me strangely of the transience of life ('though I admit I'm not sure why).
Before this gets too pretentious, I should thanks Bruce Springsteen for providing me with a title to crib from [Does this bus stop at 82nd street]; please don't sue. I owe a debt of gratitude to other (greater) blogs: MMT in MK, Six trains, two boats, Inside Reality, Going Underground, the Secret Diary of Steve Jobs and the numerous others I've stumbled across over the years.
The purpose of all this is that it might help me collect my thoughts as I undergo the transition out of London (my residence for nigh on 3 years now) and, potentially, into Amsterdam to undertake PhD studies. It also makes a change to be writing in the first person, in marked contrast to any scientific writing I work on otherwise.
If nothing else, I hope these are some interesting times; there might even be some photographs.
