Whose turn is it to make the tea?

It is Sunday, the clouds are darkening and we are still hopeful for some rain. We had about 100 drops at 7am, but none since. My days have been busy with work, trying to make some headway and not quite getting there. I have a record number of students in my class in Ballarat, and logistically it's not working. I am determined to make it work. I don't have much to say today except February is marching on and I'm looking forward to cooler weather. I glanced at a newspaper the other day which had a feature on the Red Squirrel (in UK of course) and I think the figures I saw were: Red Squirrel population around 150,000, Grey Squirrel 2.5 million. More later.

Tea and time travel

Today I've had some time to relax with a friend over a cup of Monk Pear tea and, after attempting to solve some of the world's problems, we discussed the complexities of time travel. Of course I don't wish to travel into the future or the past in a blue police box, but I do want to be in Scotland. Where else?
