Can't be changed.

The vase in the window of the house down by the student cafe freshly arranged this morning. Term papers can be glimpsed on the table inside. Have they been marked or are they waiting to be read and scored ? Two students are arguing on the pavement while waiting for their lattes. He's planning to fly back to Oregon on November 29th after his last exam. She has exams a week later and  wants him to stay so they can travel back together through JFK. He says he's already booked and paid for his ticket home via Seattle . They are not changeable. This answer  is not winning him brownie points. A removal of 'benefits' is on the horizon.

Lights on in a kitchen of a house facing the language laboratories. There's something very warm and inviting about an old fashioned kitchen like this.

Much excitement out here on the coast . A tomb has been discovered in the field near the heron pond. It's on a wee hill next to where the early Christian graves were found and is covered by a stone slab a metre and a half square. The local policeman has been out to confirm that the bones aren't recent. He drives up in his car, chats to an archaeologist who says they're at least four thousand years old and then drives off again. " Not my look out ". Four thousand year old tombs of this size and in this condition are rare and news of the discovery has attracted a group of senior archaeologists from Edinburgh. They park their cars as close to the excavations as they can which is easy as the dry weather has hardened up the soil. The farmers wife is there with the Jack Rusells. She's quite excited. The farmer is less thrilled. ' More paperwork ' he says somewhat grumpily.
