minus what?

This makes my brain hurt. Mainly because I refuse to believe that people really are so stupid.

Negative numbers aren't scary, unless they're the ones representing my bank balance...

Although saying that, I was sleepily failing to get my head around this kind of stuff in a  rather dull lecture yesterday.  It makes sense now I've re-read it though.  mmmm, geeky.

Lots of Fireworks

Today, being November 5th, is Guy Fawkes night.  Or bonfire night, if you prefer.  This means lots of exploding things, yay :D

fireworks

Last Thursday was the display at The Vale (bit of uni where some of the halls are).  It was awesome - half an hour of non-stop and very impressive fireworks!  I think I did actually get to the point of oohing and ahhing too, ahem.  And taking many many photos.

No bonfire there though - but on Saturday I went off with one of my housemates to another display somewhere.  Less impressive on the fireworks, but a massive bonfire and we had sparklers so that was good too :)

Autumn on the Canal

What better way to spend a 3 hour gap between lectures than wandering around taking photos?

the canal

Shame about the graffiti on the sign really.  I also took some pics of leaves floating on the canal (trying to be vaguely arty), but unfortunately there's also plastic bottles, rubbish and general scummyness.

It's really quite pretty and autumnal everywhere now :)  Actually, it was probably better a week or so ago, but I didn't have time then to get the camera out.
