Back from Bonnie Scotland

Well, today is the first day back to work after Bonnie Scotland. A great time was had by all including Bella!

Before going away, I forgot to add the Monolayer Eating video so here it is; let me know your comments! Matt worked really hard on this, so hopefully your comments will be constructive. I had 374 emails to deal with on my return - so much for 2 week holidays. Having done that, had a flurry of emails with Nick Hardy who has just submitted his PhD thesis - well done Nick, now just the 6 hour viva to go through! Now, about to do a few references for new graduates eager to get on the job ladder, then it's home if the car holds out. Think I've got battery problems - time to either change car or do what I've threatened to do for years, ditch the car and cycle to the tram stop.

Weight problem news: OK, my vow to change my dietary lifestyle has finally come into action. I've been on a "no bread, no butter, no marj, no cheese, no crisps, no fatty meat, no chocolate, no beer, lots of fish, lots of salad, lots of fruit diet" for 8 days now and I've lost about 6 lb in weight already! I can hear the lavish applause as I type this!! My aim is to reduce my weight by 18.75%, taking me down to a respectable 13 stone! Yes, that's right I was (note the past tense!) 16 stone 1 lb on day 1 of the new regime, but am now a mere 15 stone 9 lb - what a skinny thing I am!
Well, back to work, enjoy the video!
