Biology has an Away Day |
On the coast in the East Neuk of Fife |
David and I drive to Glasgow |
To Satellite 1, a sci-fi con in honour of the 50th aniversary of Sputnik |
Someone talks about the new spacecraft he helped design |
Jo and Johanna, students from Aachen spend a semester in my lab |
They give me flowers at the end of the semester |
A friendly (or hungry) woodpigeon keeps me company at my office window |
I go to talks in Biology This is my colleague Frank's wife, a veterinarian |
I spend a lot of time on trains |
And in train stations as I travel to many places |
To Newcastle for a CARMEN meeting |
To the Royal Society of the Arts in London for an Ethics Conference |
To Minneapolis for a Networks Workshop |
Unprepared for the cold I had to buy U Minnesota gloves |
To Leeds for an HEA Bioscience meeting |
To the Isle of Cumbrae |
For a Sea Survival Course in preparation for... |
My trip to sea... |
On the Prince Madog |
Anne at sea |
To York to give a seminar |
To Heidelberg to work with Franzi |
To Winchester for the ALife Conference |
Indy is always ready to welcome me home |
And Molly is ready to curl up on my bags |
I don't have to travel for the Genomics Conference at St Andrews |
Some days David and I leave the neighbourhood |
And cross the Tay to Dundee |
To go places like PC World |
While we're there we stop at the giant Tesco |
Inside Tesco |
Or we go to Anstruther |
To get fish at the chippy |
Molly confronts Roomba our vacuuming robot |
Anne is happy with a lap full of computers |
Molly is happy in her basket |
We spend some time with Franzi when she comes to Edinburgh |
And see Dolly the Sheep (now stuffed) at the National Museum of Scotland |
For Easter David gets me cute chocolate bunnies |
In the Spring David makes a film |
Which we watch at the local film festival |
The North Haugh on campus sprouts little white flowers on the grass |
And St Mary's Quad sprouts undergrads on the grass |
St Andrews tears up its streets |
David's family comes for a visit |
The Byre Theatre stops traffic for some kind of display |
Lammas Fair takes over the town |
And the young sea gulls who hatched in St Mary's Quad, pester their parent |
A double rainbow over our neighborhood |
