Mount Pleasant, if that is where you're thinking of.
I've visited on and off over the years but only recently realised how eclectic its collection is. I found an animal skin Bible from 1762 in there.

Disappointed there was never a Rogue 2, could've made a heckuva franchise.

However, due to many academic contracts currently being 1 semester at a time or at best a year, I'm unable to take them on at either or complete the supervision of ones I have started with this past few months.

Not really fair on the students. (Plus I really love teaching at this level)

I do like it though. Makes a big difference having a screen and a place to meet students. Going to be very useful after reading week as supervision and assignments gather pace.

I know others have mentioned it but Greens are at 150,0000. They were at 92,000 when I did my lecture. Very impressive increase in just over a fortnight

I was trying to do this for my slides the other week.Tories at 123,000 was the only reliable figure I saw. That was from July though. Only other difference I have is SNP at 56,000, from Sep. 2025

Could not find Plaid updates anywhere!

Also (why miss the opportunity to comment on how pathetic and expensive trains are) trains here are pathetic and ridiculously expensive

Got another who because of an unexpected bill can't justify the commute for the week. Higher education is classist

Allowing the Independence party to filibuster and then, (as the main opponents to the new constitution) form the next coalition can be seen as one of the most rueful moments in recent icelandic political history
