What I have been upto over the last 8 months in brief:

  • I have been doing an Open University course a second year geology module which I have enjoyed. The final project was a bit of a mess in the end but I did pass with a upper second. My previous study in maths was always more theoretical so it is interesting to do more practical sciences. I hope to do another (possible smaller) course next year
  • As part of my course I had a 5 day residential school in Blencathra . This was very intense getting up early, doing field work, eating and then lab work before bed and the next day. The scenery was amazing, I saw a mink and an eagle catch a snake. As well as chatting with fellow students I felt it was a really good experience for me.
  • Been staying some weekends at my parents and helped out when they have had my niece visiting. It is amazing to see her learn and grow.
  • Had a short holiday to Minehead with my parents and my brother’s family. Went well and it was nice to see the sea and sand.
  • Various mooching around warwick with it’s festivals.
  • Did most of the work to build a model trebuchet.
