The day has finally come (even if it felt like it wouldn’t sometimes)! Lots of re-reading the thesis today in preparation for my viva tomorrow. Strangely looking forward to talking about what I’ve been doing for the last 4 years 🐑🏴

Looking forward to leaving the UK for the first time since 2019 in a few days for #GGAA22 🐑🐄 although the 32° Florida weather might be a bit of shock!

Just like that, 3 months of my Welsh Gov placement are gone already (how are we almost in May?!). Excited to be continuing with an extension of the placement until July, when I'll go back to PhD life full time 🧪

2 months down already of my placement in the Welsh Government. What a great experience it has been so far and a great insight into civil service life, really recommend a placement for anyone having thoughts about post-PhD life! 🙌

It’s not often you can be on a hill in November in Wales wearing only a t-shirt and still be too warm! Productive day today gas sampling and collecting forage samples for analysis to complement GreenFeed data.
