One of the acads gave his last ever lecture this afternoon, after 40 years in the LS. He gave my first lecture in the LLB, and that was nearly ten years ago. We all trooped in to his class to bust it up a bit and there were speeches and massive ovation from the students, and us, but it was more important from the students. They'll remember the lecture for a long time as the acad in question helped form generations of lawyers.

Sunday's Endeavour was truly splendid. It was up to the pilot. It was a pleasure to see Strange sitting his sergeant's exam, and the limp was well-explained. A worthwhile series.

Bacon & eggs for tea.

Poor old Bill J the Hebrew man. I attended his final class after a similar stint at Aberdeen. No-one did anything. He was quite a difficult man, but very clever, and a joy to listen to in Hebrew language classes. I remember he and I had a two-and-fro which we both clearly hugely enjoyed but left the rest of the class standing. That was my general impression of Aberdeen. I didn't bother much but when I did... LOL. Oh well. All over now.
