Gifted some trinkets for my desk today by a student who knows my hot take is that The Manic Street Preachers are the greatest band of all time
Genuinely touched by that
Nice of them to include a Richey figurine as well

TL:DR
Thanks everyone, it's been great, but we're going to have a lie down for a bit before the next one if that's OK
In all sincerity, thank you @altlaw.bsky.social and the legal education community

Well let's put it this way
I'm not looking at the abstracts tonight, and I'm in an induction session tomorrow until 11 when I'll need to do emails for a bit. So what, realistically, is the earliest I can download all the abstracts?
