Any how, I do adore your frankness and I do so relate to even needing shampoo. However, what I want to say, is that at this time I do feel good things coming towards you and happening to you in every way. I know you have such big talent !! Also, you have the eyes to see all of your many blessings, especially with those new stylish spectacles on the horizon)! I'm sure Dave will love his working woman Eryl. Ethics. What a terrific thing to teach and think about. Also, to see students lights go on! What a cool gift!<br />Hi to Dave.

I reckon you're right about Dave making essay marking a joy.<br /><br />Pat ~ how practical you are, in quite a contrast to Weaver - also a Pat - below! Glasses are top of my list, I want huge reading glasses.<br /><br />Weaver ~ the first month's cheque will be small, only a week's worth of pay as the term starts so late in the month. But I may squeeze a jumper out of it once I've set aside the cash for petrol to get to work.<br /><br />UB ~ ironically, perhaps, I was hopeless at academic writing as an undergraduate. And I wailed about it stripping me of my voice. But students who master it make it their own, eventually. As with anything, learn the rules then push them to breaking point. It's just another tool, after all.
