Riddler, riddler, ask me why the birds fly free on a mackerel sky

As you can see, I have decided to give this morning's Chemistry lecture a miss. The reason for this is rather unusual - in the Physics cafe I ate an entire large packet of Fruit Pastilles (sugar) and now cannot stop laughing. I think it would be rather unsettling for everyone if I was to attend. David O'Hagan rarely says much interesting anyway, it's all just endless repetition of nearly identical formulae.

It didn't help that this morning I was reading about someone who was charged too much for an overdraft at the Yorkshire Bank, so he went and changed his name by deed poll to "Yorkshire Bank Plc Are Fascist Bastards".

And there was a break-in a couple of nights ago in a few buildings around the North Haugh - they took eighteen computers from Maths but none from Computer Science, even though they got in to the building. They must have seen the state of them and just decided not to bother.
