Hello Blog, it's been a while! Well it has hasn't it. However, exams are over now and marked and I have the final exam board meeting this afternoon. Then the last task for the year is to fill out the forms for my annual performance review, attend the department Christmas party and then that's really it for work of 2010. Since I'm on Research & Study Leave (i.e., sabbatical) in 2011 there really will be no excuse to finish the book now.
