Friday afternoon: proofread a dissertation.
Friday night: go to the Peartree for celebratory drinks, see an amazing Fringe show involving little more than two Australian men in a state of rather flagrant dishabille, and return to the Peartree to tell the class (the girls, at least) all about it.
Saturday morning: proofread another dissertation.
Saturday afternoon: attend/give a reading at Blackwell's, then collect Ruth and her friend Linda and join a bunch of primarily PhD students at the Oxford Bar for free drinks, then go to the Book Festival and catch Nick inside the VIP tent, where we sip champagne and munch hors d'oeuvres involving shrimp, pâté, smoked salmon, and caviar before seeing the awards presentation for the James Tait Black Memorial Prize.
Saturday night: finish proofreading the dissertation and go to the Forest Cafe for promised strobe light goodness.
Sunday morning: read in church.
Sunday afternoon: proofread the third dissertation, then collect payment for the first (and the second, if I'm lucky!)
Sunday evening: potential drinks with the dwindling fourth floor crowd. We shall see...

I'm on Amazon! And not just as a character in a bad romance novel!
