Hmmm

Having problems with my major project and I haven't even started doing anything on it yet. Adrian Shaw, who was going to be my supervisor, hasn't been allocated any projects this year. He says he will talk to someone in the department and see if he can take on just mine, because otherwise I will be forced to ask Dave Price and I think I'd rather crawl over broken glass than do that.

I emailed Reyer Zwigelaar last night. I've not met ... them ... before, and last night was the first time I'd spoken to ... them ... by email. When I got a reply I was hoping I might get some sort of indication as to what gender they are at least. No such luck. ... They ... couldn't take on any more major projects anyway as ... they're ... currently over-subscribed.

So now it's a case of seeing if Adrian Shaw can take on my project, and if not finding lots of broken bottles. I've been reading the timetable for the major projects, and this whole "poster session" thing sounds a bit weird to me. The idea is we print off 4-6 sheets of A4 which adhere to a standard layout as decided by the University, and then markers come and ask questions about it. Weird.
