Back at Uni.

First day back was... long. Two hours dissertation tutoring, one hour running around the library for books, three hours Special Subject seminar, one hour reading, hour and a half's choir. I got in at twenty to nine, and dinner wasn't ready until quarter to ten. Excellent time-management, Amy. *Facepalm*

I'ma just eat chocolate and watch Taken tonight, I think.

Sorry to trouble you, but you and Gramarye were chatting about her review of "Never Again: Britain 1945-51" by Peter Hennessy; I tried to comment there, but she's not permitting comments by non-friends. Perhaps you could share this with her:

Not to contradict for its own sake, but all those losses of UK dollar reserves had nearly NOTHING to do with "purchas[ing] the newest films from Hollywood." It couldn't have been even a tenth of a percentage point of the foreign exchange outflow -- which went on food and other consumables, Lend-Lease and other debt repayment, capital goods, and dozens of other, larger categories.

But I liked her review; interesting that you both are keen on knowing about that wrenching period.

Sincerely, Justine

ps -- normally, I'm not nearly this pedantic, honest! Come check out my silly LJ blog.
