For those of you interested in studying Geography to a higher level, I know of one ex-student who has applied to Manchester. This would make a great poster as well for the classroom. Hat-tip Robert Fuller, it would be nice to see more lecturers of Geography blogging, so that we can keep up-to-date with the movements in university Geography, this doesn’t seem to far away from the Geography represented in the Pilot.

Interesting comment…

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

From Peter Hitchens in the Daily Mail today

The ridiculous Blair creature could have had anyone he wanted (well, not me actually) to dinner at Chequers.

The giants of arts and letters, philosophy and science, geographers who could have explained to him where Iraq was or historians who might have outlined what happened at Suez.

Anybody. But he invited radio super-oaf Chris Evans.

I suspect that he chose Evans after his aides gently explained to him that Homer Simpson wasn’t a real person.
