Exam block ... ahh, those little slices of death where students cramm (even thought they know it is the least effective means of learning anything), and teachers apply red pen to student blothering (even though they realise the assessment method originating in the 17th century is the least effective way to guage student understanding of the course). The only thing worse than marking is exam stuporvision - yee gods, 213 steps end to end is a level 6 exam space, 8700 perforations in the ceiling tiles per room (I checked twice!) ... aaarrrggghhhh.

Nearly ready to release another bit of "X" - is fun to imagine, create and test. Also must get back to some photography, enjoy the creative stuff, singing also is strangely satisfying (buggered if I care if anyone else enjoys the noise)

Best get back to it then, a watched assignment doesnae mark itself ... hmmm ... there is a MOO programming challenge, a self-correcting assignment... food for thought there.
