I have now arrived in Galashiels and after a few days of unpacking and settling in I am having a great time getting to know everyone who is staying in my halls and on my course. This is the first internet connection I have found as the Wi-fi in the halls is not working so instead I will spend my time sitting in a quaint little coffee shop with a tea pot and scone.
After having a walk about I have realised that Galashiels isn't quite as small as I thought it would be and there is actually quite a lot available to us here, which is a blessing! Lots of nice architecture, small little cottages to lovely churches. Close by is a little town called Melrose which I only drove through but looks gorgeous so I can see many return journeys there. Tea rooms, antique shops (which I can't wait to trawl around) and little one way streets make it chocolate box perfect.
I got my timetable today and it seems like the course will be quite fast paced and intense but I'm looking forward to having some direction with my work again and learning new things.
My wardrobe is tiny but I will have to cope, Galashiels is 'Home Sweet Home' for the next four years.
Bye For Now
