Marking
Just at the end of my lunch break now. Today and yesterday I've been marking exams for the first time - it's good experience and really revealing about the difference in people, as to who 'gets' the subject and who doesn't. It's first year geography and degree level, so it should be easy, but some people just haven't done well. I'll also be lecturing in remote sensing in a few weeks too, and the PhD proposal with Nottingham is going well - other projects are being advertised now as well and I need to keep a beady eye out.
I'm also off to London a week on Friday to see my good friend Matt Cook from Durham, and hopefully a few more guys who I know there. Then the Friday after that I'm going to Dundee for the weekend to catch up with everyone there, then on to Edinburgh for a few days for a course. All is going well at church too, and I'm sure I'll be doing things with the guys there too.
The knee is healing up gradually. I have Chondromalacia Patallae, or "Runner's Knee", but I only need to strengthen one of my leg muscles to sort it, then I can go hillwalking again which is good as we're doing Snowdon in March/April time. I should also get to Spain to do some research around then.
In the meantime it's Baltic here, and it's finally going to snow tomorrow morning. Eranu!
