Today I went on one of the organised shopping trips to a town near here called Crawley. It was funny being back there, as I used to go occasionally when I used to live in Sussex. I got my girlfriend's birthday present(s), but I can't say much about that, as she reads these posts too! Once I got back to Holmsted Manor, I helped (or tried to help) another student get some Bible software on their Mac laptop. It was quite hard as I've not actually had much experience of Macs, and none at all with installing the software they wanted to use. Also, the software was not particularly user friendly (at least during the install process). While I was trying to help with that, another student came to ask if I could help them set up a movie on a laptop in their room. The first student said they would try to get the software working by themselves, and I went off to get my laptop for the second student to use for their film. When I got to the second student's room with my laptop, someone else had already managed to get the dvd to play on theirs. So I went back to my room and put my laptop away, then went back to the room with the film on, where I wrapped the gift(s) for my girlfriend, then watched the second half of the film (as it took me a while to do all the wrapping). In the evening we saw the film version of 'Les Miserable', which was very enjoyable, and a fitting end to a week of teaching on Grace.
