    Hey, here’s some more of my workplace! It’s Rhiannon in tissue culture! Yeah, yeah, I know: you want more photos of Jack. Fine.

    Jack’s walking is getting better by the day. He’s doing 4 or 5 steps at a time, and standing unaided quite happily.

    We’ve just booked a holiday to Spain with my Mum et al. and just found out that a Fontainbleau climbing trip we’re supposed to be going on starts the day we get back. Typical! The Spain holiday is about 2 hours from El Chorro too (massive bolted canyon climber’s paradise), but I won’t get to…

    I have begun editing together all the footage from Jack’s first year, as kind of a first birthday present to his Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles.

    My Mum is visiting us in Cardiff today, my brother is driving to Turin, delivering shoes back to Cheltenham, and my sister is somewhere in Southern Australia. Everybody’s travelling! I had my second weights session of the gym this year tonight. It felt much better than last week’s, thank God. And Mum and Kim cooked…

    Wow! It gets more and more interesting! Today I spent most of the afternoon moving several of our microscopes into a new room. Exciting, eh?

    We all went climbing at the Welsh International Climbing Centre today. Although I’m still a regular(ish), Kim doesn’t climb much since becoming pregnant with Jack. I’m trying to climb every Sunday and hoping to drag Kim and Jack out too. It’s hard work with the boy though, because he wants to crawl off and explore,…
