New job hopefully.

But on a serious note, that will come with more studying.

The grant was approved through the university of Wolverhampton but the money has come from Europe so in answer to your question... The taxpayer I guess?

Thanks! It was my first time speaking at I/O though. I did some presenting for Google last year in Japan and Korea but it was re-presenting other people's decks and other people's products. This one I co-wrote and it's about what I work on.

Ok. I'll change the ordering then.

That's ace. Malc. It looks like you've just told them a really bad joke and then taken a picture though. Top Dadding!

Did you say on FB that he'd only been running for a few months, too? Ludicrously good time even without that knowledge!

Malc · **Posted:** Mon May 21, 2018 15:54

Thanks guys, I'll pass on the praise, he's been street running for about 2-3 months (he used to play football, and currently still plays 5-aside, so he did have some fitness before that), and he's done it all of his own back, which is doubly impressive imo. He's keen to do more 10ks and half marathons and eventually step up to the full one (he'll have to wait until he's 18 for that any way I think)

I think he really impressed himself, because initially he was going for 2:30:00 (on their last training run it took them that long to run 12 miles), but in the end, he'd have liked a sub 2 hour, which I am sure he can get in the future.

Tax refund! Knew I was owed one - I adjusted my pension contributions a bit last year to make sure I earned enough taxable pay to pay some income tax before I left work - but still, finally got round to asking for it, and it is on its way.

Can't wait for mine. I've (probably incorrectly) calculated I'm owed between £2.5k-£3k.

JBR · **Joined:** 2nd Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 3214

Just over £1k for me, which is about what I thought. Applied online, they sent a letter back. Then I just went back online and asked for it to be paid direct, rather than wait for the cheque (which takes a couple more months). Pretty good, though the first step did pretty much use the 15 days they said it would.

Yesterday was the first time in 12 days that my right foot did not hurt after the epic blisters I gave myself a couple of weekends ago.
