I want to take the day off next monday for family reasons. Do you think I need to bother asking/telling my supervisor as its only for one day? I have always told him the past if I'm not going to be in.

I think Brad Pitt is overated. I have never fancied him. Welcome to the forum by the way. :)

Season one is really good, I got so addicted to it. Season 2 seems just as good and apparantly it gets better!

Columbo box sets are another weakness of mine but I save them for the weekend (my boyfriend thinks this is a very wrong thing to like). I also have a slight addiction to Most Haunted and spend loads of time watching it on DVD. I don't have sky so I have to wait for the DVDs.

My boyfriends friend is doing a PhD (just coming up to the end of his first year). Apparantly he works 80 hours a week!!! Surely that can't be right, can it? I'm now feeling very worried as I work nowhere near that many hours!!! I don't understand how he has time for a life.

Hillyg I too am currently addicted to the 24 box sets! Every night when I get in we watch 24. We are onto season 2 now. What season are you up to? Luckily my bf's mate has all the box sets that are out.

oh my god thats a lot. I'm worried now. My supervisor just came to see me and told me i need to get it in by the end of august now because he messed up on his bit. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!

when does yours have to be in?

I am currently avoiding writing my upgrade report. It has to be 5000 words long and in by the start of October. I don't know where to start. How is everyone else getting on with theirs?

I feel kinda the same at the moment. Its my first day back after a 2 week hol and I feel like taking another 2 weeks. I haven't been tempted by the ethanol yet but who knows?!

You are too nice, but then again if you need to leave early anytime they will prob help you out.

1) Say "I never knew you were a professor"
2) Ask "where did you buy your phd from?"
3) Say "You have got really cracking thighs daddy, er I mean doctor"
4) Say "I fetched a new e.coli sample" then drop a log on his/her desk and promptly wipe your bottom with his/her thesis.
5) Draw a characature of your supervisor on a polystyrene cup, take
it into his/her office, place it on the desk, tell them that its them, then smash it with your fist.

what country are you from 404? I'm quite liking the heat because normally I'm always cold.

I'm taking two weeks holiday. Last night I found my old paddling pool from when I was about 8 so we decided to put it and amazingly its still kinda okay after 16 years! It had a tiny hole but hopefully we fixed it. So today will involve beer, bbq and sitting in a pool of cold water. :)
