Summer evenings are for reading by the Thames

The good thing about taking a day for grading, setting up resits, etc (especially when on a research trip / fellowship!) is that you know deep in your heart that tomorrow you will approach writing with such zeal and level of production! (In other words, the article is almost submission-ready)
