So, a little update so far...

This week I've finished my second placement, studying prosthetics in Fazakerley hospital. It seems pretty crazy that this year is almost over and that it's nearly time for the very final exam on Sept 15th. Its been great fun at the prosthetics centre and the final night out was brilliant, with a meal at the top of the West Tower in the panoramic restaurant. Steve's jacket was pretty mental.

Ive also met up with a family friend - Helen Jordan, who works for the Teso Educational Support Scheme (TESS) in Uganda. She's given me plenty of advice on how to get around and places to see. Overall it was great to get a feel of what it might be like, and I'm really looking forward to the trip now.
26 days to go!
