home.rubberturnip.org.uk and gallery.rubberturnip.org.uk have been down for most of the day because of electrical work at the house. Once I got back from college, I opened up the machine they ran on as well to take out some dead hardware (crappy 6 year or so old ATA-66 card and 2 hard drives, 40G and 12G killed by the ATA-66 card). The remaining disk in the machine is only 9G, and 91% full - eek! Took the opportunity of having to power the machine down anyway to do a kernel upgrade.

Induction week continues, and is going well. JGK asked me during his session on note taking that some of us returners were sat in to be available to help if I'd give an impromptu lecture on methods of aiding learning to demonstrate the importance of good notes. That was fun. Of course, tonight is the most important event of the week.
