Footnotes excepted, I've as good as finished the judicial chaper. All I need is a good translation of 'rechtsvrede' and I just can't find one anywhere ( Read more... )

..nowhere better to get into the Christmas atmosphere. Especially with an account full of euros waiting to be spent on VATless 1,12 euro pounds. I've already bought so many beautiful things I'm a tad embarassed to admit it. Off to Manchester tomorrow, for a curry at Matt's, but not before a hearing some beautiful carols in York Minister. I've ( Read more... )

My power cord died yesterday. Panicked all night, slept badly.. decided to a find a uni computer cluster that would be open all day Saturday, but ended up cycling to Stockport instead to get a new charger.

Matthew's started his exam regime today, meaning leaving the house every morning and not coming back till late. Even though it's good for me, because it means less distraction, I'm also a bit gutted, because, well, I liked the last couple of days of distraction. There's still the minor ones though, which are just as nice really, as things like ( Read more... )
