HEY KIDS!

Do you like determining high resolution crystal structures of proteins and other macromolecules? Would you like to learn how to make better decisions during data collection and processing?

Today's petty rebellion to bloated bureaucracy.

Finally got around to filling in the expense claim for travel to/from the #CCP4SW, paid on the corporate credit card.
This needs a reason for not using the corporate travel provider for the tickets. For the train, it was "too short notice", given the rail strikes. For the tram from/to the station in Nottingham, it was "It's a tram"! There is no category for 'local' rail transport, but there is for bus/coach/taxi etc.

A reminder that if you are attending (IRL or virtual) the CCP4 Study Weekend (not a weekend) over the next few days that the hashtag is #CCP4SW

This same tag applies to either Mastodon/Fediverse (if you're cool), and Twitter, (if you still enjoy simping for COVID-denying white supremacist billionaires). #xp #Science

My lift to Nottingham for #CCP4SW Weds - Fri has fallen through, due to various respiratory viruses taking out the driver. So, deciding whether to risk the train instead.
Looks like I would have to miss the last session owing to the #RailStrike and still a bit of a concern about others passing on unwanted Christmas 'gifts' even with the low in-person attendance this year.

Annnnnnnnnddd, I'm not going to be going. COVID then RSV has slayed me. You don't want contagious me coughing and hacking my way through all the talks, so I will be watching from the comfort of my own bedroom. Sorry I'll miss out on all the fun.
