A very enjoyable 6 years on SCC finally comes to an end. A great team at Microbiology Society to work with and I am sure Steve and Gill will do an outstanding job in running the committee over the coming years.

Honoured to give the keynote lecture at the symposium held at the NIH Bethesda to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Reed Wickner’s discovery of yeast prions. Can it really be a quarter of a century since Wickner (1994) appeared...?

What a great way to round off two excellent days fishing for grayling (successfully!) on the River Nidd: a fat rascal at Betty’s Tea Room in Ilkley!

Perfect day on the Applecross peninsula Scotland. Great fly fishing, red deer, golden eagles, black throated divers and other animals. Stunning views of Skye and the company of friends.

Day 2 of our Scottish west coast trip. A great 36,000 step round trip walk to the Sheildaig lochs with perfect weather.

Not long after a Spitfire flew over our house (twice!), the Goodyear blimp emerged from the clouds…Chartham Hatch’s very own air show!

We have just spent two glorious (albeit wet in part) days in Yosemite National Park - and it turned us into budding Ansel Adams! #Yosemite

It’s not until you wander through a redwood forest and look up, that you really appreciate the sheer immensity of these living ‘creatures’.

Quite by chance I stumbled across this. Almost 20 years to the day albeit with a very different result to today. The Gills won 3-2 then! #gills

Completed my first “flight” in a Spitfire…..including flying UNDER the QE bridge….and all without crashing! OK it was on a simulator but great fun. Thanks to the Spitfire and Hurricane Memorial Museum for the experience!
