The Dean’s Diaries 
Being a True & Factual Account of the Doings & Dealings of the Dean & Dons of St Andrews College, Edinburgh

A collection of diary entries from the dean of the fictional St. Andrews College, Edinburgh. Longsuffering and cantankerous, he documents the comings and goings of eccentric professors, academic triumphs and failures and the disastrous outcome of a physics department’s experiment resulting in the magnetisation of the number 42 bus.
