It doesn't seem three months since my little girl died. Looking less than delighted at having her photograph taken, the date is mid October 2011 sitting under a tree in Coundon Park the breeze just ruffling her thick brindle coat. She was a beautiful, funny, independent Cairn terrier cross. She came to me a traumatized 3 month old puppy. There was just her and me and I miss her more than words can say. She has her own place on a canine liver disease web site but this is the way I will always see her, full of life, happy, confident, just a very special little girl.
Brandon Marsh, the headquarters of the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust, is an old quarry site which is now a 200 hectare nature reserve. An excellent place to try out a new zoom camera. If you can get there. It's a mile and a half's walk down a country lane before you arrive at the reserve, which with the same journey back, makes it tiring. It's not a place therefore I visit very often. In fact I've only been once before. |
Angela TorpeyI have taught Egyptology for nearly 25 years, for 21 years with the Centre for Lifelong Learning, the University of Warwick and for just over 10 years on the internationally recognised Certificate of Egyptology (Distance Learning by e-Learning) with the University of Manchester led by Professor Rosalie David.
Because of changes to the lifelong learning programme at Warwick I now teach independently, although I also teach dayschools for the university. For nearly 20 years I have led Study Tours to Egypt both independently and as guest lecturer with Ancient World Tours. Archives
