I'd only seen about 2/3 of the computing students on Tuesday. Today I saw the remaining 70 or so. Different room (bit awkward but not as voluminous), no academic taking 10 minutes out of the start and a completely different feel to the whole hour. (Perhaps it was a result of putting back in the three 'fun' things!)

But best of all - particularly after the downers of the earlier session and the math department - was a quote that was forwarded to me by the academic who'd arranged the sessions. Right at the end of the day as I'm about to go home she wrote saying:

"Thought you might be interested in the following piece of feedback from one of the study project students who came to your 11 o'clock:

'About today's Final Year Project lecture, I found it EXTREMELY useful and probably the most useful lecture to date and loads of other friends agree with me.' "

In nearly 12 years of doing this I don't think I've had such a marvellous piece of feedback. Thank you whoever you are.
