New year

The new academic year of the community commences tomorrow.  In the next week the schools re-open and life will once again be hectic - at least for those who have responsibilities!  This is the last weekend of the sacrosanct holiday season.  Some of those who went out of the country are complaining that their holiday spot was too hot.  Others are complaining that it rained all along to the place they went to.  Most probably only those few unfortunate who stayed put in Britain, had the best of both!

The weather is still warm, though we do have some spells of rains in a week.  However, the only thing sure about English weather, is that it will change!  Am told the south of Britain is much better.  The north is either cold or wet!   In Salesian circles there is the joke that at a particular house in the north if there isn't any rain in two days, they declare it as a drought!

I handed in my Master's dissertation on Thursday and thus concluded my one year Master's course.  Now need to get on with the doctorate.  Still am not very sure of it - neither the topic nor the study itself!  However, will give it my best shot.
