still, just two days to go now

Well, slightly depressing: research review meeting this morning didn't happen, owing to illness of team member who's in charge of it and resulting lack of quorum, and I won't be presenting my research item till next month. As happens in these cases, I feel a bit let down.

On more positive note, up to approx 48K on very rough first draft of book 3. Conflict has just been introduced. Hero and heroine will now go in separate directions and sulk.
