My brother, sister, brother-in-law, and baby niece are coming over from the U.S.A. on Friday, so we have been frantically trying to make some last minute alterations to the house. These have included painting, waxing, taking apart, repairing, cleaning, etc.

I have been spending most of my time reading Theocritus. Not sure when I will be going back to St. Andrews yet, although I imagine it will be some time during Freshers' Week.
