    Ah good ol Dr Stanley went 12 pages with that (conclusion obviously not marked) and I still have vivid memories of OMG scrawled across our report page in block capitals at some point. Also some spiral binding so he can read with a cup of coffee

    Attention to detail, make sure you have units on your graphs, and that figures and tables are labelled correctly. Justify the text etc.
