06:25 alarm goes off. Ignore it.
06:30 get kicked out of bed by Mr. PFLs annoyed that I've ignored the alarm again
06:30-07:30 feed cats, fish, myself, get a shower
07:30 head off to work
07:30-09:00 sit on the M6 and curse the follies of commuting
09:00-12:00 search for PhD students who appear to be avoiding me (AerBabe - you're not one of my students are you??), sort their problems out when they can't elude me anymore, curse my RNA preps. for failing yet again.
12:00-13:00 food, PPRuNe, Flyer web site, read papers, mark student essays
13:00-18:00 more failed RNA preps., clear up the radioisotopes I've splashed around the lab, chase more PhD students, kill a few cell lines, wish I'd brought some coffee in with me...
18:00-19:30 gym aaarrgggh! I'm only doing it to keep my class 2!
19:30-20:30 commute home - its easier than the trip in.
20:30 get home - realise that it's much nicer than Birmingham and I don't mind the commute after all. Eat, drink beer, think about flying, read about flying. Fall asleep because of the beer.
23:00 crawl into bed.
And repeat, and repeat, and repeat......
