So today they obviously decided to have a scary right-wing politics morning on both sides of the House.
Exhibit one, we have Mr Clarke (the Home Secretary, Labour, nominally leftish) with his global database of anyone who might have been a bit naughty. I may be oversimplifying, and I sure as hell know [...]

What do you get when you get a load of very stressed computer archaeologists, human origins people, osteologists, marine archaeologists, and one lone man from Hull, and put them together in a building that sells alcohol and food?
Answer, a great evening. Even the presence of the [...]

So today has had its ups, and its downs.
The first downs were catalogued in the previous post, followed swiftly by getting into the lab and finding I’d left my teabags at home, so twice today I had to shell out 52 pence for some very dubious tetley tea.
Then there were some ups [...]

So, I have once again bowed to pressure, and made the foolish decision to post another story over at Blackcurrant Cheesecake. Not the really long serial one - still need to work on that - but something [...]

Ok, I have come to the decision that I deserve to die the crazy old cat lady and be found a week later, mouldering away, with my fingers eaten off by my 50 feral cats. Just wanted to get that out in the open there.
*shakes head in sad, disconsolate fashion*
Also, half two in the morning [...]

You know you’ve reached that point with your thesis and research when you start having dreams about your supervisor chasing you with sharp pointy objects and trying to brainwash you.
After the third such subconscious visitation from the godhead, it was decided that I needed a night off, and I was taken to see ‘Crash‘ for [...]

I’ve been musing on Perception with a capital “P” for the last couple of days now. Not in any major fashion, but enough for it to be a thing in my brain. The following musings are a result of a few conversations with different people over the last couple of days, some of them drunken [...]

About a month back I was reading this blog and saw this post. It’s also turned up recently on Nanette’s blog, Say It, Don’t Spray It. I liked the idea. I think it has merit. I am also pretty damn certain that y’all are getting a distorted view of me from this blog. Not sure [...]
