hello?

Anyone want to see Purcell's Dido and Aeneas performed by Cambridge Youth Opera (monkey boys in the chorus!) on Mon or Tue evening at St Mary's School?
I shall be going with tamaranth on Monday. musique_monkey and assembled grandmonkeys will be there on Tuesday. Tickets of the door or prebooked by me if you can let me know by tomorrow.

Other than that, I shall be out of circulation. It's marking time again so, of course, I have an urgent translation. Brown hare poplutation fluctuations in the Federal Republic of Germany, since you don't ask.

And Spider has a crazily busy week next week--Dido is just the start. He has 3 separate subjects of GCSE exams on Thursday, in different locations! Plus a 6th form open evening and two (simultaneous) revision workshops, not that he'll have a chance to get to those, but it's the thought that counts...

done!

For today, anyway. 2,100 words about hare population dynamics in Baden-Württenberg translated from German to English. It's been a slog of a day, but now all I have to do at the weekend is sort out some inconsistencies, figure out what a 'Formzahl' is, and check the thing through.

The author should have been shortlisted for an IgNobel. Who'd have thought that hare density is inversely correlated with fox density and positively correlated to the available hare noms in the locality?
