Mock mock

A morning of revision was broken up by a brief turn out to Clare's for an hour at her barbecue. Woody and Clare, Ollie and Z-Box, Chubb and Steve, Max and Wallis, and Paul were there. I hadn't seen anybody in ages - studies before buddies, right? - and I was a little overwhelmed to be faced with so many all at once. Only Milney was missing from five-seven. What a sweltering day. It wasn't easy to tear myself away, but I did, and pedalled off home.

My mock mock exam went pretty well. I wrote about sampling, and about evaluating a research proposal. Checking through the model answers was reassuring. I think I'll do okay tomorrow in my real mock.

Meet and greet

Liz met and impressed 57, Steve and Sean this evening. I hadn’t spoken to Keck about his recent hook-up with Zoe, nor with Steve about his recent hook-up with Chubb, nor with Woody about his recent hook-up with Clare. What a long-missed pleasure: gossip! Liz and Milney got on particularly well, which warmed my heart. It’s that Aquarian spirit, right?

Liz really impressed everybody, especially me. We were hammered, but she kept up being funny, charming, and intelligent. That’s just her being normal though.

Falling out of a taxi happened too…
