At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books, drink tea, and eat pastries in a humble seaside cottage during a raging storm?

Tonight’s bedtime discussion yielded the insight that My Immortal’s author notes read like they were written by a 40K orc and that honestly elevates the entire experience. Like it’s an orc‘s fantasy of what da hoomies would enjoy.

Given that I’ll continue to spend a lot of time reading papers and wrangling QGIS/R, I got my future self a gift: a mug warmer. At least now my hot beverage will stay hot!

A white ceramic mug with a blue dragon holding a cookbook saying “steak St George” on it sits on a black cartoon cat shaped silicon mug warmer in front of a computer screen.

Repotted my monstera. Turns out it was unhappy because it is in fact five monsteras. Unsure what to do with my new jungle.

This deer lives in my mum and grandad’s adjoining gardens 🤷🏻‍♀️ They’ve named her Mompf (basically Chomp). She’s been around a couple of years and eats their flowerbeds.

I’ve taken the Newcastle - Ijmuiden ferry many times, but this time we saw a minke whale!!! Extraordinarily exciting.

That was quite underwhelming 😅 at least we had a yellow balloon and a penny to simulate what was going on for the assembled kids of Science Club…

Three months, 48 sites, thousands of trees, “poor precision” and over 2000 miles driven - but today field data collection finished! Here’s us taking the final point.

I get too excited by fancy tools - look at my face 😆 Could do without hearing “Poor PDOP” so many times mind…

A woman with short brown hair is standing in a forest with dense undergrowth of rhododendron. She is wearing a navy fleece, grey outdoor trousers and black wellies. She is holding a tall staff with a grey container on the top and a keypad in the middle and looks very happy about this.

50mph wind with 70mph gusts was a not the best conditions I’ve ever camped in…

A group of six small one-person tents pitched on a heathery expanse in front of a large imposing mountain cliff. There are a few people around the tents, but they are too far away to make out. The tents are being buffeted by strong winds.

It’s great when your kids are big enough you can steal their jumpers. Bonus if the jumpers are awesome.

Our little street now has sixteen children between the ages of one and twelve on it. It’s great, there’s a roving herd like in an 80s movie. It does however mean that I’m having my coffee on the swing because 9am mariokart is a lot

Very chuffed to find out today that not only did I get a First Class degree, I also won the Research Based Learning Prize for Best Environmental Science Dissertation. It’s the icing on the amazing cake that’s been my time with @uofstirling-bes.bsky.social!

Enjoy this picture of me looking smug at measuring the 1000th stem this season in the sun, not knowing just how soaked I would get in the next two days 😆

You know it’s getting serious when the binoculars come out (alternatively the trees are just too big to see the leaves properly from the ground 🤫)
