I’m sorry, Gela. How could I say no? She was so fired up and indignant on behalf of the department.

Gela Nathaniel

Perhaps let me know next time, so I can address it *before* she gets fired up.

Patrick Bright

I feel sorry for her. She’s so young. There’s no one remotely her age on the course.

Gela Nathaniel

She’s old enough to accuse someone of theft. Now I have to go through the formal channels and at least appear to investigate it.

Patrick Bright

And that’s not what we want. I know.

Gela Nathaniel

Can I have a quick word with you before tomorrow’s session?

Jem Badhuri

Of course. I’ll get my dad to drop me off early.

Doodle message group [Private] Jem and Patrick, 17 October 2023:

Jem Badhuri

I’ve spoken to Gela. Let’s just say a certain someone won’t be stealing for much longer.

Patrick Bright

‘Excellent,’ I cried. ‘Elementary,’ said she!

Jem Badhuri

Who? Gela? Well, no one will worship Alyson any more, knowing she’s a thief.

Subject: Assignment One

Dear all,

This is your final reminder that completed Assignment One materials must be sent to Hannah (or, in the case of 3D items, left with Rita) by close of play tomorrow (Thursday).

On Tuesday we’ll spend some time going through each project as a group. Be prepared to chat, informally but in detail, about your idea and how you achieved it. Also be prepared to critique each other’s work. Learning to give and accept criticism to a high level is a key part of this course.

Good luck to those of you in the final stages.
