Aftermath

With the class test over - bar the marking - and the blog finished, I started promoting the PhD studentship that I now have to offer. I looked through 20% of the class test submissions, and they confirmed my fears about how poorly the students had performed. For a moment I wondered about writing off the test - saving myself the marking - but then I found a couple of students who had, more or less, got the test correct. 

In the afternoon, I went out with Django for groceries, and he was stared out by this familiar cat.

In the evening, I cooked for A, and then we went out to "The Crown", where a team consisting of A, her three friends, and the four husbands won an excellent and tightly-fought pub quiz. A couple of us were distracted by the prospect of Rangers blowing a two-goal lead in the home leg of their tie - and we had to be careful not to celebrate the Fenerbahçe goals too loudly -  but they squeaked through. Unlike United, who slayed the mighty Real Sociedad.
