Well, what an interesting few days. I was in Cambridge on Saturday, attending the annual day of the Faculty of Education and Language Studies (FELS) for the Open University in the East of England. Dreadful journey and public transport connections: Bus from home to Luton, train from London to Welwyn Garden City, bus from Welwyn to Letchworth Garden City, train from Letchworth to Cambridge. Engineering works on the line apparently. Anyway, the day in Cambridge was well worth attending; networking with fellow lecturers, being feted as the only Welsh representative and attending interesting workshops. I hope to be part of a group of dedicated Researchers at the OU from now on too.
Saturday evening brought news of the narrow Welsh victory in the Six Nations against Italy in Rome: 20-15. But a win is a win, right? More importantly, Miri and I went out and had a meal in our favourite Italian restaurant. Yes, they cook better than they play rugby... atthe moment, anyway...
Sunday. Sainsbury's and curtain buying.
Monday. I have just started an OU on-line course for Tutor Moderators. This should last 3 weeks, and is only part-time. Hope it proves beneficial. Also with the OU, Students' 3rd coursework is due by midnight tonight.
