At 7:58pm on October 5, 2009, Euan "YONS" Hislop said…: just back from training, thats cool hope you are better soon, we are away on wednesday playing some farmers in ayrshire (the agricultural college so i am guessing they are farmers lol) hope fully see you on monday night

At 12:41pm on June 8, 2009, John Sutherland said…: Would you be willing to help at Digital Futures on the 15th? I can offer you a wee contract worth c£50. You'd need to help kids with Scratch and take part in the E3 chat. Don't tell anyone else as this is an exclusive to invited games students and nobody else is getting paid ... seriously, keep schtum.

OK. Made a few changes, just minor editing. Seems Fine. The additional document giving history will help. One general point about the other document, do use a nice font, 11pt, 1.5 line spacing, etc to make it look real nice.

At 8:47pm on June 2, 2009, John Sutherland said…: BMcK history: add some wee piccies of the consoles mentioned, mebbes as a row of icons in a horizontal line (reference the urls by endnotes); stick dates (i.e. years) on the emerging lsit of consoles to show the passage of time & gaining of experience); mebbes explain the Hostel in a few words; I like your chat-up line 'I raged at her'; 'starting to be a bit more critical of games' needs more intellectualisation, perhaps say 'reflective' or 'comparitively critical' (i.e. critical in comparison to accumulated gaming experiences.); in the conclusion mention your game dev knowledge too; have you tried for a job at Absolute Quality in Glasgow?

At 10:08pm on January 9, 2009, John Sutherland said…: Ben, due the ongoing illness of the teacher at Govan HS we won't be running the WBL module there this year. Sorry. The 'Analysing Computer Games' module will be offered, but it runs in Dumfries only; you'd still be most welcome.
