Once again this past week we’ve been busy scanning across the internet to find the latest information and Open University courses. This week we tackle retirement, photographic memories and bookkeeping/accounting. So if there’s a free course or bit of news on the agenda then hopefully we will pick it up and stick it on the next Open University news.
