    The problem with fb is you are never sure whether you know potential friends or not. Your request shall probably still be there.

    I shall attend to it.

    Have just realised that tomorrow is the 17th which means I need a dissertation proposal sorted for meeting my tutor tomorrow PM. Better go and sort that too.

    I am okay all, just a bit tired from working for three days - I'm not used to it :beer:

    Apparently hard work never killed anyone.

    They lie.

    Well we did establish in the last few days that I'm not going to die of anaphalaxyis in response to wasp stings so that's worth knowing. I did wonder after the first sting of the day! The woman working on the stand did thank me for working and said that it might make the owner realise how hard we work (as he was also working not just drumming up trade!).....and he spilt/exploded more than us. Seriously how do you avoid being stung when you are covered in strawberry fizzy favoured cider?!!!

    My dissertation will be on carbon free housing.....which as you will remember Z is not literally carbon free construction but allows you to live in it carbon free. It will hopefully give me an MA and the working title is 'Barriers to carbon free housing : a case study of British housebuilders'. (Prepare for this to be different after 2pm today).

    Right before my proposal form I am off to search for this weeks current list of jobs and then search the library catalogue.

    Catch you later for hopefully much less intellectual conversation. On that subject has anyone see 'Devil's Double'? I could do with a review before tonight.

    I'm surprised it has taken you this long to find out.

    I do know that wasps die when I get stung. Usually even before. One died a couple of nights ago in fact.

    OK, so how did he explode? In temper? Or bottles?

    Flypaper...it works really well for things like that.

    The cider bar owner. He dropped the cider and a can of fizzy cider - what a mess.

    The title of my MA dissertation 'Pole dancing: The builder's perspective'.

    No, it won't surprise you it isn't.
