Introducing : The Intermittent Student

19th November 2010.

So why have I gone back to studying again.... well, my fiancee or wife, depending on when you read this, signed up for an Open University course, so I thought that as I had not studied for some time it was probably as good a time as any to start again. Also with both of us studying, hopefully it would be easier to motivate each other to study.

So without a huge amount of planning or thought, I seem to have signed up (and paid) for the first module on the path to BA (Honours) Politics, Philosophy and Economics.

This blog will follow my studies.
