Embarrassing moment no. 2375

I met up with my old tutor today. It was weird, to be back in the warm English corridor, with the smells of slightly stale coffee and old books.

It was comforting, since I have joined the Army. Yes folks, illness is not an excuse for missing a law seminar, and if you do not turn up to your progress review tutorial, even if your tutor ignores your emails, you will be shot.

Today, the law department's new trick was to give us a seminar on how to do an essay 18 hours before the essay needed handing in.

So I was walking along in the strangely warm weather, musing on my crap essay and the potential all-nighter stretching in front of me. I was looking at the autumn leaves, and how some of the trees have still got all their green leaves, with only the tips turning orange and some have dropped almost all of theirs onto the pavement.

There are crunchy leaves in gutters, and big ones just landed onto the pavement, leaving handprints all over the ground.

I turned the corner to go into the law school.

And then a car parking barrier hit me on the head.
