Revolutionary Rants

Well, yes, I am supposed to be on my weeks placement with the local paper today, but yesterday has put me off placements for life!!!

I sat around for 6 hours out of an 8 hours day (having got up at 06:45 to get there nice and early as instructed) doing nothing - luckily i had brought my book, as the computer was locked! I went for half an hour to the Magistrate’s Court (which was really interesting, actually, but only from the point of view of watching, not in a journalistic way), and the other hour i was doing something was typing out letters / planning permission notices. Plus, they all thought I was still at school (flattering in one way I suppose…)!!!

Well, I think I can type crap out for free at home, too, and at least it is for me! So, I am home, a lot annoyed and with a whole day wasted. Never mind.

I have at least decided that I will definitely b going to York now - I am more a political person than a journalist, that much is obvious!
