I’m feeling particularly uninspired for things to write about tonight, so it must be time for a gratuitous photo of Parsnips:

Only three months to go until my thesis submission deadline, so it’s very much nose to the grindstone around here. I’m making exciting progress though – one of my data sets is complete and I’ve almost managed to construct a statistical model to describe it, and the other data set is almost ready (“almost” being…

Gin, alpacas and flying lessons – so how was your Christmas?
