Affliction


Lindsey is leaving University at long last, after constant trouble over her lack of work and non-attendance. She’s away at the moment, staying with a friend in Swansea, and has been since yesterday morning. I think she’ll leave Watermouth completely.

She was down about it last week, saying she feels as though she’s let her mother down. This dropping out of higher education is a congenital Aukin affliction from what she said.

I think she’s made the right decision.

Stu has escaped being stopped from taking one of the units of his degree by the skin of his teeth; he had to plead with his tutor to be allowed to continue. He’s home in Basildon this weekend.
