Wednesday Mornings
For the foreseeable future, there will not be a lecture on a wednesday morning (10-11AM) due to some timetable clashes. However I did ask Iain to timetable the labs for our use between 9-11AM on wednesday mornings and these are still available to you guys to use. For the moment there will not be any tutors or lecturers in the labs during that period so you should use the time for quiet study, coursework, and catching up on lab exercises.
If we find that we are falling behind then we will use the wednesday sessions to get back on schedule. Similarly if we need to spend some extra time on any subjects then we might schedule some extra tutorials during this time.
