Holiday in Wales

A few weeks ago we went on holiday with Russ’s parents and his sister to Wales. We stayed in a lovely farm with sheep and a horse. It was excellent! We visited lots of fantastic places, wonderful views and had a great time. Here are some pictures that I took on my phone. Russ took lots more with his fancy camera but I’m yet to get my hands on them :P

The last day

Today was my last day of work. My colleagues decided to surprise me with a farewell present and a card. It was really nice and although I only worked there for 5 months I really enjoyed it :)

It almost made me cry… (maybe I did, a bit ;) )

And now…Now I am officially unemployed! Again!…

Damn you Russ!

It’s going to be colder here than in Scotland :s

At least there will be snow :D

BioLEx

And what is BioLEx, you may ask. BioLEx is a biological experiment that we (students at PSSRI) are developing that will go on the spacecraft ESMO sent under the supervision of ESA (European Space Agency). ESMO (European Student Moon Orbiter) will be launch to orbit the Moon and take different instruments. All the instruments, the space craft, and all the money necessary for the development is of the exclusive responsibility of students from different teams around Europe! ESA supervises and gives us a lift on a rocket.

When I say ‘we’ at PSSRI are developing BioLEx I don’t really mean me. I just deal with the money and budgeting part of it ;)

So I’m here to present you with our fantastic webpage completely done from scratch by fantastic Jemma! She did a lovely job!

Here you can see information about the team, the mission, the Moon and our instrument.

Just click this link http://www.open.ac.uk/pssri/esmo/

Take a look at the team page and pass the mouse over the pictures to see the two faces of our team :p

I will also keep a link on this page under the work category.

The Beach

So after a few days looking for the ring and seeing family and friends we headed off for a real, resting holiday.
My stepmum’s family has a small house near a beach in the north of Lisbon so there we went for almost a week of beach, good food (lots of fresh fish, very good bread and local cakes), putting back some weight, and fantastic views.
Russ is not used to being on the beach so he got a bit bored. But I loved the 3 S: Sun, Sand and Sea! Oh and the sea was great!

 

Back

After a long day of travelling, we picked up the wedding books (took a look-oh dear there is so much to think about), went shopping (didn’t have ANY food in the house), I took a nap, and now we are looking for a theme for our wedding blog (this is news, will give you updates soon).

I am absolutely knackered and I don’t want to think that I have to go to work tomorrow, but the truth is, I am quite ashamed to say, I am very happy to be back home. I really wanted to come back as weird as it may sound. To my house and to my daily life. It seems like this is home now. Just the food and the weather could be a bit better :S

I’ll write something about the holidays soon :)
