Everything that's excellent...

My first day at BPP today! Essentially just an administrative day, but we were also given a literal shedload of books with excellent and erudite titles along the lines of Blackstone's Statutes on Contract, Tort and Restitution - 16th EditionPleasingly, my tutor is a former classicist. I also found myself sitting next to a classicist from Exeter,

Good for enthusiasm! Enjoy the reading. Remember to talk to people. You'll do great.

*keeps mouth shut about how heavy she always found Blackstone's...* ;-)

Enthusiasm is good. Can I borrow some if you have any spare?

Looking at all my Blackstone's editions, my sister found one thing odd about their size. She noted that criminal law is the most famous aspect of the law - in literature, film and popular culture it is the foremost in people's minds - and yet, out of the five books of statutes I now own, Criminal Law is by far the smallest, being about a third the size of the largest book.

The title of the largest? Somewhat inevitably, European Community Legislation.

Contract Law is the biggest part of the Oxford course I believe, and also where the biggest money is.

The title of my largest book is "Tort Law: Text and Materials". (Lunney and Oliphant). The authors' names are particularly pleasing!
