I will report back when I receive a reply to my FoI request

Lovely day in Shrewsbury seeing a dear friend.

Matt Goodwin seems to be too busy celebrating his book to tweet about what's going on in Hungary. Sure he'll get round to it.

The government sets a maximum fee level for institutions but provides a loan to the individual students so that they do not have to pay the fee up front. This maximum fee was frozen for many years such that its value significantly declined. It was £9000 in 2011 and is only £9790 now.

Thanks! Amazing to think all of Mrs Einstein were under 40 at the time of the contest yet were referred to as 'older'.

What's the link to the sheet music?

The person next to me on the train is writing an email with thr subject line 'Battered Chicken Bites'. Either works for Lidl or an animal shelter.

My day was ruined yesterday when Mary forgot to put out the general waste bin. There isn't another collection for a fortnight 😢

I have great affection for Essex. It embodied what a 'university' meant to me much more so than the so-called dreaming spires, and I'm very proud to have an MA from there.

Excitingly, I grew up right on the NORWEB/MANWEB boundary. My house was in NORWEB and my primary school in MANWEB.

Always found it hilarious that the Robinson Record published her home address at the height of her fame.

Poor Konnie Huq, no longer the most famous BBC Robinsonian

Did you smile and say 'we shall have fog by teatime'?

Matt Goodwin's fall is sad and shocking. I'd never have thought that such a gifted and interesting academic would become capable of writing such cynical and malicious trash.

I was also the product of a smoking-during-pregnancy mother!

Excellent example of VC pay restraint at Stirling!
