As of now the weekend migration of TMUK members has begun.
Let's sit back and watch the hilarious consequences....

Setting off now. 2 megabuses. Yeesh! Thank the lord it's not a night time Megabus gold! Remind me NOT to take Jonathan with me to book train tickets again. Because of his interruptions I forgot two very important things :-( Station disagreed on my routing home being valid on my ticket (how can change at Reading not be "not via London"?) but said given I was disabled and not able to board a coach I might be able to get away with it.

My ability to meet up this evening is limited as to whether I'll be needing to work late, which is looking likely at the moment (AND I came in 2 hours early specifically to avoid that!!)

And how long did it take for a member of our team to become a biohazard and need to be confined on the Throne Of Power?
LESS THAN HALF AN HOUR!
And it wasn't Ralph!

Oo-er!
Still at the office, struggling through a paper called "Classification of Fe-bearing species from K-edge XANES data using two-parameter correlation plots" which is almost as much fun as it sounds.

Technically a twin bed so we'll count this one as a WIN for Andy & Burns against the Turnbull hotel booking curse:

I do NOT like this picture!
(the man behind Burns is Bogatan, Andy Keirnan, who's usually very good at avoiding having his photo taken!)

Well I just got halfway through a post apologising to Fort Max saying the copy of my book I ordered hadn't arrived, but then it turns up! I actually ordered 3 as I'll need two others down the line, so if anyone else is fancies the greatest book about the TFUK comic tomorrow let me know.
Also, some of you may know I work nights. As such, despite normally trying to be up by 12 on a Friday as it's my first day off, I've instead snoozed till six in the evening. This may affect how bright and breezy I am in the morning, so apologies in advance.
