Friday 13th, then. I’m not a superstitious person. But I would’ve been late for an assessment had my course tutor not phoned home to tell me that it’d been brought forward by half an hour. This meant that I had to drop everything and leave home sharpish.

The assessment itself went well - even though I didn’t actually know it was an assessment until I got there. Ten minutes before the end of time, however, and my computer randomly turned itself off. Arse. Thankfully, frequent saving throughout saved the bulk of my efforts, and the tutor bloke was highly impressed.

Then on the way home - after a very disturbing ’scraping’ noise on the roof of my double decker bus - the lower deck windows of said bus caved IN, shattering into loads of tiny pieces.

Nobody was injured. But it wasn’t exactly a pleasant experience.

And now to add to all of that, my DVD player won’t play Red Dwarf VII without juddering. I was desperately looking forward to watching that too, dammit.
