21st November 2007

Lots of big pressing jobs overwhelming me at the moment: Chairing an Internal Quality Audit, preparing a book proposal (deadline about now), writing a paper for Progress in Physical Geography (deadline coming up), sorting out the Physical and Geog Sciences School Quality Assurance paperwork, doing all the paperwork for Physical Geog for the upcoming Annual Review of Courses, supposed to be getting back to Routledge about another (overdue) book project proposal idea... but can't find time to do them in amongst a heavy teaching and admin burden at this time of year.
