Anzac day
I've had a fairly quiet week so far, no exciting travels to talk about. However i have managed to do a few things. I organised an Anzac day service to be held here in Leicester. The Royal British Legion and their associations were very happy to help and quite a few of them turned up for the service, as did some people from the Britain-Australia Society, so all up about 12 people attended the service. It was very nice, very simple but just something to help remember all those Australians who have died as a result of war.
I also have attended a museums conference this week. It ran over three days, but i could only afford one day of it. It was really interesting, I went to the day that discussed communities and identities in museums, so got to hear about museums in Iran, Holland, Belgium, Portugal, New Zealand and Australia. I managed to talk to some of the delegates from Australia and New Zealand and got a couple of invites to visit people at museums once i get back home, which is all good for possible jobs and careers.
Other than that I have just been working on the essay and thesis, catching up on reading and relaxing. This weekend I'm heading off with rellies, so I'll have some more photos next week.
