Liverpool folks! (Especially, but also everyone else)
We've had snow. Please could you help me out and fill in my survey on attitudes to snow clearing.
Pictured: my path, which I haven't done yet...
I am attempting to understand how my case left the UK at 20.3kg and since, nothing additional has been added to it and weighed 20.4kg at the hotel, 22.7kg on one of the scales in the airport, and now 24.9kg at the bag drop.
Do they calibrate?
Successful @giscience-conf.bsky.social conference in Christchurch this week, next stop - one week A/L in Auckland visiting family.
Ka kite anō, Ōtautahi. See you again, Christchurch.
#newzealand #aotearoa
Thank you to everyone who took their time to discuss my research with me and for any compliments too! A great memory for @giscience-conf.bsky.social.
p.s. apologies for any mumbling, jet lag is real.

Fantastic keynote session from Dr Michelle LaRue, University of Canterbury discussing #remotesensing imagery for monitoring the Antarctic emperor #penguin population.

A slightly creased scientific poster at the #giscience2025 conference, but proud to be in attendance.

In my typical fashion I overestimated the walk and arrived early to an event. First day of the #giscience2025 conference in this beautiful city.
A few highlights from the walk below 👇🏻
#Christchurch #Ōtautahi #NewZealand #Aotearoa
I tried sleeping for much longer during the flights but my body couldn't adjust, especially with too many distractions. Envious of people who can board a plane and fall asleep before pushback.
Air New Zealand's #skycouch and #skynest would have been nice. But I flew Cathay... (No choice really 🤭).
It is currently 17:20 NZST and my body still thinks it is 06:20 GMT. I travelled for 45 hours from my home in the UK to the hotel in NZ, sleeping for only 3 hours. Caught up on sleep last night, but tiredness is starting to creep up again. Hopefully I am refreshed for the poster session. #phdlife
My first full-day in Christchurch for the #giscience2025 conference (starting tomorrow for me) and I highly recommend Dosa Kitchen at the #Riverside #Market for anyone into #streetfood. The mixed vegetable Dahl with naan is mouthwatering!
And wow! The #Christchurch Botanical Gardens are awesome!
Excitement is building as the #NewZealand trip draws closer for #giscience2025. Academic #poster arriving tomorrow!

Airline, hotel and conference booked for #GIScience2025 in Christchurch, NZ.
I cannot wait to travel to NZ for an interesting event and to present my research in a poster format. #academia #phdlife #greenspaces

Awesome #birds. Been surrounded by #Chiffs the last week and their call is endearing. Stunning photograph.
I have taken part in these sessions in previous years with Nick Moran leading a brilliant approach to learn #bird ID from their #songs and calls. I would highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in bird #surveying, whether just starting out or developing birder upskilling. #ornithology 🐦🐦⬛
My new #motto in #life:
"Wing it like a #lapwing".
Also, here is a badger I captured on the camera trap during field work.
Staffing on an ecology field trip and taking the opportunity to be in a remote location by deploying #camera #traps. Otter would be a bonus to capture.
#ecology #academic #wildlife #surveying
I am now providing private #tutoring for #naturalsciences, #ecology, #wildlifeconservation and #healthgeography. Including study skills support, guidance and #R tutoring / support.
Day 3: I am becoming progressively sicker 🤧🤒 while attempting to work on my #PhD from home. It feels as if a boxer has delivered a perfect left hook to my head - pre match.
Thanks #Microsoft, for forcing a #windows update overnight, when my PC should have been running a computationally intensive analysis.
I have clearly been doing sit ups wrong according to #Dalle via #ChatGPT. Next time, I must grow extra limbs.
My #cat looking posh and annoyed.
Tested #DeepSeek #AGI by asking it to comment out a specific line of code in the correct position. It took 408 seconds to break the #R script instead. #ChatGPT has repeatedly commented the line below and sends the same response each time.
AI / AGI be crazy. I guess I will just press Ctrl Shift C.
