    Luckily my entire undergrad department know me really well and most of them love me because I got really involved with everything. So I'll probably get one reference from them.

    Please tell me you have yellow hair - I'm having visions of a musical Marmite jar singing on a shelf in a supermarket


    Is the love/hate thing to do with your love of Abba? :p:

    Because there are issues about going back (on both sides, not just me ) and urghh wish the temptation wasn't there as I know just how stupid it would be to ignore it. :o:

    I'd kinda ruled it out big time. Bah. :woo:
