It is difficult to think of many positive effects of a terrible flood iike this. There was a mini flood in 2007 and the Environment Agency's new flood defences kept the water in the river channel - so remedial action worked and avoided further damage or loss of life.

Reading through the BBC article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cornwall/4133936.stm there is a quote: "People used to say - Boscastle, the place near Tintagel. Now it's Tintagel, the place near Boscastle." Which suggests that Boscastle is now better known and possibly improved tourism.

Homeschooling

Hi, We are currently situated in Corfu/Greece and we are homeschooling our daughter. She is in grade 6 and she needs a tutor for Maths/Geometry, Physics, Geography, History, History of Arts, and Biology. We need tutors that would arrange a schedule to have a lesson once a week for each of the subjects. A better price would be ideal, as we would have to pay for multiple subjects. Thank you in advance, Vivianna Bartels

Dissertation guidance

Hi,

I'm looking for some help with a dissertation, the topic itself is loosely based around the Sri Lankan Civil war/human rights and governance during and after the war.

The issue I'm having is narrowing this down to become something I can turn into a dissertation and even how to start this piece of work.

If anyone could help that would be great,

thank you
