Mara has always been terrified of dogs. Apart from Lothar. She loves him. When we asked her why she's OK with him she said "But he's ok, he's a bear".... Bye bye big bear :( We love you. Hugs hugs hugs to you all.

Hello!! You got this mamma! I'm so happy to find you on this side of the BlueSky. And congratulations on the little one. Life changes in ways you never expect when you see the world through their eyes.
I'm still volcano wrangling and messing with drones :)
And this is why geodesy matters. Want to know where your aircraft is the next time you fly? Guess what. Position information is important...

You likely won't be like "really wish I'd submitted that" in 5 years time but you might regret not spending time with those you love.

The artwork is a stone ring, about a meter radius, made of 17 different types of stone arranged in chronological order, all smoothed together to form one continuous loop on a slab of Devonian Ballymagreehan Granodiorite.
Congratulations to Angela Palmer for winning the Art in Stone award from the Stone Federation for her works Torus of Time and Tower of Time.
Torus of Time, which represents 3 billion years of geological history made of stones collected by Angela from across the UK, is now on display at the Museum

It's seen as a fun 'extra' thing to do in your spare time, or a half arsed 'broader impacts' on a grant, but the attitude of not spending time on it or it'll detract you from 'real work' needs to change. IT IS IMPORTANT!

I make sure that book sits next to our big lab table. Don't know how many students have read it, but it gets moved often... Hope that even reading the title helps normalise that mental health is important. Thank you for this book!
