In ur detailz causing unnecessary alarm

Someone at Milton Keynes has emailed students to remind them that the end of module assignment (examined coursework) must be submitted at noon on the deadline date or it won't be marked. Not by noon, at noon.  I know this because several of them are now panicking.

Would serve MK right if they all submit at 11.59 and crash the server.

That's kind of fabulous. In an awful way.

That sounds v entertaining, except for you, given overloaded inbox. Students these days are very literal.
