Done nothing to PhD today I must write something about ethics. I emailed a chap Andy S. recommended A.E. at York who is doing something with maths for the blnd. An EU project. LAMBA see today's Guardian for job ad also York's home page Computing dept jobs.

Message today - move all files from local disk partitions c and d: to c:xpbackup
HAVE NOT STARTED THIS AS PARTITION TOO SMALL,
MESSAGE FROM IT: Move all stuff from C drive to backup folder and they will deal with the D partition.

Finished marking - endless spreadsheet erors - buts missing etc. finally done and dusted.

Yesterday - Monday 9th June. Worked all day very hard! Talked to Sarah and David about the OLAAF project - neither of them went to the meeting. Asked Demetra about the meeting apparently she is now in charge. She said she would let me have the notes of the meeting.

Sorted out venue for summer school preliminary meeting

Found out that usability course is 9-6 every day next week. Need to do something about chiropracter! Notes on BB
