Sean Ledwith keeps calling it "superstitious nonsense".. I remember having the same argument with him in 1643, and again in 1829....

Hello Reece, you taught me sociology last year at college and just thought i’d let you know that believe it or not i actually did really well. I got a D in first year but then i actually started working really hard and managed to get an A so i got 3 A’s in total for my A Levels and a place at Bristol University. Me and Ria thought you ought to know your student prodigy’s have gone on to great things. Hope you’re doing well and we have not forgotten about the free costa you promised us.
All the best, the favourite students
