Stuff & Nonsense

As poor Laura lurches from deadline to deadline (AHRC, Uni funding application, comp exam, two marking deadlines), I'm afraid you're stuck with me filling in for now with bits of silliness. As silliness goes however, the following ranks very highly, providing a good dose of unexpected Monday morning laughs.



I'd also like to throw in a link to something Richard recently recommended (thanks Richard!). This is an excellent site featuring audio and video lectures from all kinds of fascinating intellectuals on a fantastically diverse range of topics. My favourite so far - I couldn't stop downloading these yesterday - is the charming Bill Bryson on A Short History of Nearly Everything.

Happy Bank Holiday, enjoy.
