PERCY, London:
I slept fitfully on the long bumping ride down to London (far too reminiscent of our old Greyhound days), and disembarked weary and miserable. I went into a bathroom stall at Victoria station and stripped off my warm Edinburgh fleeces etc. to be replaced with an immaculate and ill-fitting suit. I was ready for work (barely). I then took the long trek down Sloane Street to Sloane Square, the headquarters of Europa Capital, the company for which I will be interning the next couple weeks. I am working for Henry Morris, a guy who only a few years ago was interning for my dad at TMG Partners in San Francisco. The circle of life I guess.
So now, work has begun again, although the life of an intern in a high-powered London investment firm is very different from that of an Essex gardener, but I will be quick to adapt and will keep the postings as regular as I can between editing PIRs and FIRs, analysing QAPs and examining HoTs, and re-drafting NOIs.
More, (including, hopefully an explanation of the above acronyms which I myself have yet to figure out) to come once I am settled at work.
