....and it was all worth it. I think the main reason I stayed up so late to implement my project properly and not just hack together something that'd blag the viva is Richard. He told me that if I did it properly, I'd be proud of it and that would shine through in my viva.

He wasn't wrong. It went really well, I could answer all but one question (about security, when my second supervisor chuckloed and told me he wouldn't expect me to be able to answer it unless I'd done a big course on security). Nothing broke in the demo, I stayed within my time limit. But best of all, my 1st supervisor had to stop my 2nd by saying "Mike, I've got another viva in 10 minutes." to which the reply was "Oh, but this is such an exciting and interesting project."

Fingers crossed, I've come across well and I'll be high marks. But from previous experience, I know not to get excited or my hopes up because at the Univeristy of Southampton, the work you put into courses or the feedback you receive never correlates to the mark you get for it.
