      Sometimes it can be hard for friends/family and others to understand exactly what is that you do – but engaging in events like this is a fun way to get around this problem.

      There isn’t anything that I really dislike, I occassionally find it a bit boring in seminars – especially if I don’t understand anything that they are talking about because it might be an area of science which is very different my own.
