And....pause :]

Well after yesterday turning out to be less productive than hoped on the study front I decided to take the study into the city :]

Started with a morning study session in Starbucks - sunny spot, castle view, tasty vanilla latte (which I'm sure I got a larger size than I ordered!) and friendly staff all helped make it a more productive start to the day :]

Lunch break in the gardens? Yes please. The finish of the Fringe, start of schools and a slightly cooler time of year means that the gardens are that little bit quieter :]

Then decided to pay Central library a visit - I'm sure the National Library of Scotland (which, it turns out, is near impossible for students to access) across the road is the nicer of the two... However, Central does still have stone staircases, wooden bookcases and enough of a hushed atmosphere that it felt like a good library for study.

So with the secret to productivity unlocked (get out of the flat...and then don't stay still for long...) dissertation should be a doddle...!?! :D

In the meantime, need to learn the differences between TACS, PACS, LACI and POCI...
