Felt completely perky and buzzed around during the exam, then 5 mins later after i was done, nearly went blind from spots in my eyes. got diarrhoea and fever 5 mins after exam. how good is that...awesome God. praise Him, i would have positively failed if i was in the state i was before and after the exam. couldn't even process what people were saying around me. anyhoo, Rupert bear here i come! going to watch all the episodes. heee!

Hi all,I thought that would get your attention? This afternoon I have specifically laid on (small fib) an opportunity to recharge your batteries and think about something completely different for half an hour (true). Another Open Day is scheduled this afternoon & there is opportunity for a select number of you to have a 'chin wag' with some students potentially thinking of Physiotherapy and coming to Salford. Email me if you are able. You would need to meet in G17 at 3pm. Normal rates of pay apply. You will receive a personally signed letter of commendation for your portfolio (this looks v. good at interview and practically guarantees a highly paid Sen. Physio job offer - honest*)3. You will receive a a 'Finger of Fudge' for your tummy (the un-crowned 'King of confectionery'). Any volunteers automatically would get above 80% from me in the current exams (the fact I'm not examining you this time shouldn't necessarily put you off - it's the thought that counts after all).Let me know if you want to be involved? Either way hope exams/revision aren't proving to stressful. If they are please re-read the above.....
All the best,David

even better, even better!

gleeful for all the wrong reasons

perfect, perfect spring weather today. the most MOST most perfect weather i've ever experienced. the sun shining golden rays everywhere, it was hot but nicely so. the breeze cool and calm and just sitting out on a hillock with good company, eating. lying around in a bed of flowers, no venomous ants crawling around waiting to pinch you to death. pink flowers showering down from trees. an hour of perfect bliss. the sound of happy people soaking up the precious once in a lifetime good english weather. marvellous!

SG this is for you! =)

In the Torah (the first five books of Moses), there were seven sacred festivals instituted by God:
The Feast of Passover (Pesach) - celebrated the night when the angel passed over the Hebrew households in Egypt.
The Feast of Unleavened Bread - commemorated the first 7 days of the Exodus when the Hebrews left Egypt in such a hurry that they did not have time to add yeast to their dough.
The Feast of Weeks - also called the Pentecost (Shavuot). It marked the end of the harvest and offering of first fruits.
The Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) - the blowing of a ram's horn, or shofar, to call the people to prepare for the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). Later this day became the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah).
The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - the most solemn day of the year. On this day, the High Priest sacrificed sin offerings to atone all the sins of the people and entered the Most Holy Place to offer incense.
The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) - celebrated the completion of the great fall harvest and remembered the Hebrews in the Exodus living in tents for 40 years.
The Feast of the Last Great Day (Shmini Atzeret) - marked the conclusion of the festival year.

Of the above, 3 were considered as "major feasts": the Feast of Passover (Pesach), the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost), and the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). These are often called "pilgrim feasts" because all adult males were required to travel to the sanctuary to take part (Deuteronomy 16:16).
