I know it's almost been 2 months since my last update, but I am still alive! Bad friend/son/grandson/etc!
So I can't quite remember everything that's happened in those 2 months, I'll try to catch you up on the highlights. As a warm up, here are a couple of pictures from Berlin I took when Nicky and her Mum/Dave were visiting.
Cool sand sculpture competition. Really amazing.
Gedächtniskirche (memorial church - it's hard to see but it's only half a church because the other half was bombed) and its memorial thing. I think I've already posted a picture like this, but no complaining!
The next story is my knee. Most of you have already heard, probably, but just to get everyone up to speed: ~6 weeks ago I dislocated my knee cap playing volleyball at work. I've done this 2x before, so this makes number 3. After number 3, they recommend surgery to adjust the alignment of the kneecap to prevent the same thing happening a 4th time. So 3 weeks ago I had the op, spent a week in hospital, 1 week at home, and have been back at work for a week now. It's healing well, and should be running around in a month or so. Here's an MRI scan (from the side of the knee) that I think looks pretty cool.
And last weekend, after my compulsory 1 week at home, I got to go on our annual lab retreat where we all go away for the weekend and do team building stuff. Was good fun, if a little frustrating sometimes not being able to join in with all the sports. Here's the whole team (this is actually only half our lab, it was split into 2 weekends).
Hope you're all well, let me know what's up in your corner of the woods.
Adam
