happytune's last day at work today but I've gone down with something - just a cold I guess, but I feel 'orrible. I slept all this morning, and I've woken up with a wretched headache, but I think I will get dressed and join her team for her goodbye drinks in Kenilworth. I can hardly believe she's leaving our work after so long. She is going to do a PhD at Warwick - has managed to get full funding, including a personal allowance (is that what you call it - money to live on) even in these straitened times - I think a tribute to the high status she has in the research community. Good luck happytune. Might see you later if I can get out of these pyjamas and into something respectable.
