All vivas should be like this...

That's fantastic! my thesis is about how expertise is negotiated between civil servants and scientists... I'm thinking a re-enactment in the viva, where I get to be the civil servant and my supervisor can be the scientist and I get to hit him with a non-metaphorical big stick :-)

I'm really glad they're not!! The original article about the competition said the man who got the best marks in the competition was wearing a translucent loin cloth... that's a step too far for me!! It reminds me of dance classes when I was at school unfortunately, I hated them and think pretending to be a tree or doing a dance of the vampigs has put me off that sort of thing for life.

RubyW, the loincloth one is quite good too...
