Oops

I've been a bit lax in posting on the last couple of days, sorry about that - it's because I've been mostly studying and sleeping :-)

I'm working my way through Dr Faustus at the moment, and although it's quite hard going, it's an interesting play, and there are a great deal of comic elements.

For those who don't know it, Faustus, having gained a Doctorate in Theology decides that common study is no longer challenging, and decides to delve into the study of Necromancy and sells his soul to the Devil for 24 years of whatever his heart desires.

I'm finding it interesting, getting back into reading "proper" literature having spent months and years reading what can only really be described as "Tripe" on the train, but I'm enjoying the challenge!

First tutorial tonight and I'm looking forward to it - and hoping that I'm on the right track with the studying I've done so far - I hope so!

TTFN
