    Jack’s a big Gorillaz fan. Well, OK, he’s a very short Gorillaz fan, but nonetheless, he likes the music very much.

    Our 1st year medical students haven’t broken up for Easter yet, but they did have their last anatomy session today. This means that I get my Sunday evenings back for a few weeks!
