Parents

Seems they're actually being really helpful for once. My Mum has requested that I send her some paying-in-slips, and she'll then pay £100 or so per month into my account! She's also asked me to work out how much money I need per month to keep my car on the road, and food in my cupboards. Splendid.

After discussing the oil related issues of the car with my Dad we reached the conclusion that the oil observed was actually a result of the car trying to dispense with excess oil as the guys at ATS actually overfilled it when they did the oil change. All good then. Mind you, that doesn't explain the odd noises I heard when changing gear. I suspect that's the clutch though, which is almost certainly on its way out.

Registration is happening tomorrow. I hate registration. It's such a weird way of doing things. Why they can't just have us select our modules from a web page or fill out a form and hand it in at CompSci or something I do not know. Plus they always scare me every year by pointing out that if my student loan doesn't come through in time (it never does because I'm never organised) then I will in fact be liable for the full tuition fees and that's a hell-of-a-lot of money.

Mind you, I can hardly blame them for that...
