Summer is coming and is right around the corner. Do heed the words of Mungo Jerry:

D'oh! Actually that occurred to me to include that option as well (hell, why do only one when you can do all three! Very Happy ) but only after I hit the submit button. I thought I could go back and edit the survey, but I can only edit the text.

I guess I was only thinking of myself (Embarassed ) and kept those options separate: I no longer booze it up and I don't really hit the beach, but I still chase the skirt every now and then.

D'oh!

Warm regards,

But the bar and the beach are the best places to chase skirt!

All the best to you, Shroob. Did that fall under 'work' or 'research'?
I remember the summer I wrote my diss - life was no beach that year:-(
But well worth the effort!

I chose 'research', as I thought work would be teaching or something. My summer will mostly be spent with books in hand, though there are a few questionnaires I may send around....

It's the start of winter down here in NZ, in a way I'm glad...

I don't miss the build up to the summer term of ESL madness that reigned my life for 4 years. It's a strange feeling 'working' over the holidays, I guess I could never shake that part of being a student myself... Summer holidays were always the best part of life... *excuse my sudden case of nostalgia*
