    Thanks. Considering that I am supposed to be only part time, I think I deserve a marking-free evening every once in a while. :)

    Thanks Alchemilla. Tonight I have normal marking and preparation but no coursework. :)

    I have been paid today and the mortgage payment will have gone out but only have a few minutes to catch up on diaries before settling down to write something that I've got to take to a (non-work-related) meeting this evening. Will update spreadsheets and sig etc later if poss, or else tomorrow. :)

    Ugh. Didn't quite get the marking finished last night but was losing the will to live so gave up and slept. Have just finished the marking now and am about to have the world's fastest shower and hair wash before doing school run and going to work. Still haven't had time to update spreadsheet and sig, but am not going to do that until the boring stuff is done. Am I very sad and geeky indeed to be waiting to update my spreadsheet as a treat for doing other stuff?
