It has taken 3 years and 9 months, two supervisors, two funding bodies, and two different countries, but my thesis is finally done and in. It looked so nice when it was bound (lots of images).

So wow, 86,000 words in a humanities area I had no previous experience of. Hoping for the best. Haven't printed a copy of my own because my viva won't be for ages and I will only flip through in despair.

But yes, it is in - how weird.

I joined this forum in 2006 and never imagined I would finish. Thanks for all your support over the years and esp. in the last difficult stages.
