My 9am workshop start didn't occur because of the sleep button on my alarm clock. Before I left the house this morning I also has to rouse Currin who had stayed in Swanny's room as although Blonde had left him the keys to her house, he didn't want to spend the night without the luxuries of the full Sky Sports Package and the XBox which are available to all house guests at The Palace.

I had been up until 1am talking to a guy called Jimbo off the course who needed to interview me for his dissertation on graphic designers. It ended up being more of a social chat talking about his experience designing websites last year and his travels in South America. I think we covered most of the stuff he needed though, although it didn't start early (10pm) and took me right up to bed time.

I finally got into the workshops at about 10.30am and spent the day wondering back and forth, making moulds, vacuum forming, picking up my (very expensive and not very rapid) rapid prototypes and making a general nuisance of myself. There were the usual faces about; Mario, Jim, Rosie, Gemma, Rich, Plev, Tad, Matt etc etc. It was today I realised that this really was the last chance to be working in a calm workshop and the thought is a little scary, especially considering I've since discovered that my RPs aren't exactly the right size and neither is my former that I've been slaving away at for the past two days. Grr.

On the brighter side Jon has said we will meet up early next week and said I might be able to take a run at one or two more MDP parts in his workshop at home which will really be of benefit. I'm now also being forced to do dissertation as the workshops have finally closed and so I've got tomorrow free to make a move on it. This said, Currin and I are still working on getting this stash train moving and I've got another A5 list of things to do to complete in the next few days. It's going to be fun or hellish. Probably both.
