Well I was in Cornwall for the last week and it always rains there (It's August!).

That can go here too.

When you take an instant, completely irrational dislike to a new acquaintance... and later it turns out you were right.

I will assign to Orthanc the beginning of school after 2½ months of holidays...

It's great to be on vacation when you do not need to pay heed to the clock or any "civilised rhythm" of the society around you, but in the end it wears you down indeed, and it's nice to meet the students and colleagues after a long while for they are dear to me. But waking up at six o'clock is just impossible after you have woken up at midday the earliest for the last months... ... even if I can see it will do me good to get myself organised after the lazy summer...

I really love to hate it and hate to love it.

Ditto. I haven't had a legitimate class since early April, and that was finals week. So really, it's been since March... The idea of sitting still for the duration of my classes is freaking me out a little.

I would say it didn't when I went there as child but I know it did - one year in particular we drove for about an hour to the nearest leisure centre which was about the only thing under cover. And I remember watching the rain drops trickling down the car windows which were steamed up from hot cornish pasties. But I also remember loving it and I can't wait to go back. So Cornwall can't go to Orthanc.
