It is all still bad BUT I have managed to sort out the work he sent.
It was just a case of me being an editing twat really for the abstract, not noticing that I had written the number '3' instead of the word (I was tired but oh, the shame) and stupid long sentences. The content was ok tho and I take a teeny bit of heart from that.
In a way I am glad this phase has started and that I have been thrown into it - and that so far i don't need to drive to the other side of the country to have a face to face about how dreadful it all is. And it is lovely he is editing it for me (am jammy, yes, but he is Very Cross about it and really, Sup never, ever gets cross with me) as I have no brain and am not a brilliant writer (hello, blog).
Arf. After i stopped weeping with shock and sorted it out I felt ok again. All that in 20 mins of drama.
Am dreading what tomorrow will bring.
Oh, and my footnotes are a shambles.
