Got marks for modules done so far today!
Module 1 - intro to gis 71%
Module 2 - remote sensing (the group work one) 66%
Module 3 - database/sql 79% (!)
Module 4 - spatial data (statsHORROR) 72 % (!!) apparently the essay from hell got me 69% v. unexpected!
So, average so far 72%! In distinction land! YAY ME! Tho did get a talk about Not Being Boarderline and Pushing Harder for better marks. I am mostly still in shock i did this well, never mind better!! Apparently am joint top of class too. Boo to group work tho. BOO.
also have v. v. sore head. May enthuse more when can think straight.
Oh and so this isn't just uni stuff, we have a Guest up at the stables. A v impressive one

Steve the Stag (not sure who christened him that, but it seems to have stuck). He was the cause of much RAGE tho yesterday when IDIOT girl put bucket of feed for him RIGHT BESIDE arena wall, resulting in me nearly going head first OVER that wall (note Drop) when Ziggy spotted him. Was Not Impressed, especially as I had asked her NOT to go out with feed until after I had ridden. Stupid cow.
The stag tho is amazing. We can't work out where he came from, could have been released by/escaped from a stag hunt, but hopefully he is safe for now, til someone can be found to take him to a proper home (it's too close to roads really for him here and no way to keep him in).

Though whether I pass is another thing altogether...
That's an impressive beast! I miss being close to Phoenix Park now I'm out in the schticks. I need to get cycling again now I think about it...

The stag is very impressive, it is amazing to see one so close up. Will have to try to get better pics, he usually doesn't appear til dusk then there isn't enough light.
Tho I'd be a lot happier about him hanging around if he wasn't terrifying the bloody horse while I'm trying to ride ;p
