Thursday 23rd June

We had a lovely sunny day except for the odd shower so we were in shorts most of the day!! I was with Tavy, and we had alot of nice chats and alot of beeps, mainly from passing lorries! (now a new game of ours to tally it up!!). We had a pub finish with another pair joining us. Got back early. I cooked risotto for everyone.

Wednesday 22nd June

In the field with Judith today!! We got done very quickly, with a good field gossip, catching up after a whole year!! And had a cheesy chip finish :)

Tuesday 21st June

A rainy day in the field with Liam. We had a view over Loch Lomond until the clouds descended. And then we waited as he had broken the Auger. However it was very fun, collected 15 soils and finished the day with the traditional tea club!

Monday 20th June

My first day in the field, with a full day!! We hopped fences, took samples and revised everything i know about soils!! We had many questions about if we were digging for oil...Finished the day with a birthday party, an indoor BBQ with pass the parcel and High-Viz candles!!

Sunday 19th June

Got up early, and got the train. From Bristol to Glasgow is a 7 hour journey. Used the train journey to look through photos, read and call people. There was a welcoming comittee for me at the station. Got to our accomodation, my home for the next month. It's G-Base time!!

Saturday 18th June

Our last day in portugal - we tidied the villa, got rid of the bottles and left for a cafe. We got big breakfasts and waited for the taxi to the airport. Flew home, found disasters in the house, finished packing and slept in the bare room for the last time.

Friday 17th June

A nice lazy day spent reading by the pool, topped off with a bbq and jumping photos!!
