Gone back to normal now after the hiccup over the 'faulty' reading yesterday - an additional 4 mm in the non funnel one, and an additional 5 mm in the funnelled one - so good news...
Book purchases
In an effort to improve my study skills (apart from surfing youtube) have purchased the following book, will let you know how I get on with it in later posts:-

Have also purchased the DK Science book to back up anything which I don't understand at first glance in the S104 books:-

Procrastination
Just starting to look at why people procrastinate - there seems to be loads and loads of videos on youtube about it so obviously a common problem! My main problem at the moment is facebook and reorganising my study everytime I go in there! Having just watched one video on procrastination so far (is it procrastination to watch videos on procrastination, one may ask!), so this is not going to be very scientific, it seems that the reward is being given before the deed has been done. So lets say the house was meant to be cleaned, you would go to the cinema or go out first before doing it, makes sense in a way, anyway this is the video:-

I personally would love to find something which locked me out of facebook for a couple of hours a day to start off with and see how it goes from there. So if anyone knows anything that can do this please let me know!
