Bath and Bristol (June 25)

On the way back from Wales we stopped over at a small campsite on the outskirts of Bath. We headed to the city centre via the park and ride for a few hours before driving cross country to visit my eldest daughter Lauren.

Being mid-week and out of high season the city was quite empty, so with the glorious weather we lucked out.

We didn’t have a huge amount of time so simply checked out the main tourist spots.

It was a lovely way to spend a few hours before Lauren finished work. She lives a mere 30 minutes or so from Bath.

The renovation…

We spent the evening (and next morning) with Lauren and Andy at their newish house which they are renovating.

The entire place is getting a facelift with the biggest job being the loft extension. To keep costs to a minimum they’ve only had the builders in to do the first part of 1st fix. Everything else from the insulation, wiring, plaster boarding, plastering etc is being done by Andy and Lauren. They’re doing an amazing job!

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Luckily Andy is an architect so they have managed to control costs in that space too.

We spent a bit of time in their allotment, which is a stone’s throw from the house. Lauren made us an amazing vegetarian meal consisting of produce they’d grown too… they may even invest in some chickens soon (for their eggs). Living the ‘Good Life’.
