This is how the Ecoli looked under my microscope and I am planning to trace this picture instead of looking through the microscope and trace it . - http://www.physics.utoronto.ca/~wryu...
I think tracing what you see under the microscope becomes a fairly daunting task for alot of students, the fact that im not very artisitic doesn't help either. - Munaf khamisa

Unlikely. It didn't shut last year when we had nearly a foot of snow. - Dr Alan Cann

I think the major problem will be getting from halls to uni if the buses stop working! - Jemma Buchalter
But atleast you can walk from halls to uni which will take maximum 1 hour walk. I wont be able to walk from Coventry to Leicester - Aisha Shakel
I wish this would happen but I don't think it ever would! - Lyndsey Wright
Last year the buses didn't stop - they just started from opposite Beaumont instead on John Foster - Laura
That's what happened today- they stopped at Beaumont, though we didn't know this which made us late! I doubt they would cancel, though I think they should because plenty of people genuinely won't be able to get in. - Rebecca Suter
You could always walk down and get the 31 if the 80 isn't running properly? - Lyndsey Wright
