Heronbank is pretty comfortable as far as residences go - my own en suite, new furnishings, and a kitchen that's cleaned every day. The drawback is the quietness which is a feature of postgraduate setups. Still, I can add it to the tally of places I've lived in my time testing the various uni campuses - Amsterdam will be my fourth.
Doc's Prescription of the Day: Friends who have promised to visit will be coming either while I'm in Amsterdam or during the summer spent elsewhere. This is the closest you'll come to Heronbank. Can you now picture how I go about my days?

I'm glad you've made it home here.. Though I must say that it lacks a certain... je ne sais quoi ... of Isabella. And I think that quoi is the Hinckster! Yes? Actually made me a bit nostalgic to see your room without the deco of 1-3-5.
Roll over Beethoven, I'll be there soon!
If this was American/Canadian Idol. I would vote for Skype visitor number 2...
Loved the 3 way chatting thingy last night!! Although I would like to write a strongly worded letter to the people at skype and tell them that I would like video on the 3 way chats. What do you think??
you gotta full screen those bitches. hot lookers.
miss you keither! thanks for the photo documentation. it was so fun to see herons. lol.
love!
love the photo essay doctor!!
xo
wait doctor...I ahve a question..is TD really in your land?
Nope, TD is a strictly Canadian joint. And as a side note, I use to be a member of Canada Trust before the merger. That was years ago.
I have a Barclays account here in the UK and will probably have to get one in Amsterdam. That will bring the running total to four - maybe I'll keep one of the offshore accounts open to transfer piles of money to in the future...
