Hil, is there someone in the department that you can speak to about the student with the missing assignments? It sounds very suspicious to me (and also to the rest of the world, I suspect). But there might be someone who has had a similar situation who can give you help on how to handle it (and how the dept will back you).

If he makes a fuss about it, I'll talk to the professor who's officially in charge of grades for this class. (Generally, for everything except midterm and final exams, he'll say that my word is final, but if there's an issue, I know that I can officially defer to him.)

Nora! You were in St Andrews!

bouncebouncebounce!!!

Where did you go? Did you walk down the West Sands (beach next to golf course)? 'Cause my flat was RIGHT THERE!!! Or go on the Pier? Or through the ruins of the Cathedral? Did you go into the Castle ruins? 'Cause the building opposite the castle, called Castle House, is the English Department, where I used to have my tutorials. Oooh! And did you go into St Salvator's Quad? Pretty pretty pretty! And did you eat in the Doll's House restaurant? Which my friend manages?

LOVE that place.

Gooooooood afternoon. I am tired and had to golf in thirty degree weather.

Fay, I still remember texting Euan from St Andrews.

I've been to the West Sands and the Cathedral ruins, on a previous visit (that's where Tom's mom lives) The pubs I went to were: The Whey Pat, the Cellar, Central Bar (?? I think that's the name) and one called something weird like Drouthy Neebors. Oh, also a place called One Golf Place. We watched the Cheltenham horse race there on Friday.

I liked the Whey Pat the best, it was the least crowded with students, also, they rotated their cask selection out pretty briskly. They have only 3 cask taps, but I probably had about 6-7 different beers there. Will have to consult my list.

I think we took Eve out to lunch at the Doll's House when we were there last. And, yes, we went up that street that went up from the Castle, because Tom's old Philosphy Department building was on there too. We mostly wandered and sat in pubs.

Sounds like the perfect holiday.

I can't stop listening to "House Rules," I want to you know.

And in conclusion: DAMN YOUUUUUUUUUU!

Muahahahah! I get a toaster. Or a free ride from PADDYWHACK.

SWEEET. Must have been a fun show, j.

Actually.... Well, it was, but I was right in the path for the (copious amounts of) smoke, so I inhaled more dry ice than is really healthy, and the mix was hella muddy, and they didn't play for very long, so... It was fun, but I'm very glad I didn't have to shell out $60 for it.

Happy birthday Raq!

I think being on vactaion going wandering around and going to pubs sounds like more fun thatn the grocery store.

Happy birthday, Raquel! And a belated to Mal as well.

Bleary morning. It's fascinating how the knowledge that your job is going away will drain all of your interest in doing any work.
