Cally, Happy Birthday! I must have missed it. Glad you had a good day.

MD, exam is all over. I guess I did alright. I mostly remembered the essays I prepared. I am with you on the marking inconsistency. We were given a really open major assignment, just to summarise the course in any way we wanted - from a straight summary to a alien perspective to a scripted conversation etc. Then the only lecturer went to hospital and someone else marked them and not how we were led to believe would be acceptable. There is a minor uprising on the online forum lol.
This house is well insulated so retains the heat nicely but our heat pump doesn't work on the really cold days. But we have an oil heater running 24/7 so it is alright. The snow only lasted one morning and then got rained out.
Nice that you had a good night out. It makes a difference to have some friends, even if they are only casual ones.
