And there was me thinking no one read it!
What a great weekend - great people, great fun, great opportunity. I'll look forward to seeing many of you later this year.
Soooo, catch-up time. Now, where was I. Oh yes.....
Chelsea went out of Europe to a last minute shocker but salvaged the season with a fighting comeback in the FA cup Final. No work that day!
First assignment now marked and very pleased with outcome, particularly a smiley face from Rachel. On the down side she implied I wittered on in my introduction. Moi? Witter on? Some mistake, surely!
Second assignment largely done - had to rush it as off to Florence tomorrow and little chance to do any more before hand-in date. And no assignment work this weekend for obvious reasons. Had opposite problem form first where I struggled to get the word count up but had some good material. This time I'm already over 3,000 but not sure I have anything like the same degree of critical debate. Quantity not quality, methinks. Will try to devote some time to it next weekend.
And now, an early night (for once)!
Arrivederci.

Sooo, one week down four to go till we submit first assignment. A good time to take stock. Glass of wine in one hand, lap top fired up, so here goes. I thought an optimistic target would be 50% of research complete, 30% of the reading and 10% of the writing. In fact its more like 30/30/30. First the research - started well than ran into the vaguaries of Emerald. I know it only has 75% of the articles but why does it only have 50% of the ones I want! Reading going well and writing better than expected - word count up to 688. All in all, not too bad. As to study time, seem to have settled into a routine ok. Mon-Fri I tend to do an hour's research after work (6-7ish) then go home, cook etc, than an hour of reading/writing from 8-9ish. About 10-12 hours in total. Nothing this weekend but, hey, it is the weekend. Had kids and constructed a 10' trampoline so not all frittered away. No kids next weekend but Chelsea in champions league semi mid-week so some catching up required. Well, that's enough from me. MOTD on shortly and glass needs refilling. Later....
