Five weeks have now flown by and we are well into October, hurtling towards Halloween. It’s definitely Autumn outside! I am now over half way through my time with the Digital team and know that when I have to move I am definitely going to miss the team.

Work wise I have been given new things to work on, as well as still carrying out daily reports and monitoring. Anna, my line manager even asked if there was anything I thought I wasn’t getting to work on.

The build up to the Christmas party is beginning to get into flow. I have volunteered to be part of the stage management team – this is the chance for me to be involved as much as possible without being on stage (get a bit of stage fright!). On Friday we had a sort of rehearsal party. This was in the theme of Pirates (a not so secret love of one of the Spook team). We got dressed up and took part in a treasure hunt. This I am pleased to say we won – after an extremely loud rendition of ‘What shall we do with the drunken sailor?” I suspect that the image of people racing through the office dressed as pirates searching for items was extremely amusing, as well as a little bit weird!

I am now getting to do more challenging things, using many tools that I will use in the future for research and reports in other practices. I’m getting to dip into the big consumer clients as well as tech and healthcare ones on a daily basis.

Heather, Clare and I have announced that we will be wanting everyone to think pink on 30th October, with more details to follow as we get closer. This is our first separate project so fingers crossed it all goes well.

Last week we got some great feedback out our work in the teams, which has really boosted my confidence, just hope I can keep it up!
