this is a *great* article. Particularly enjoyed "As for this sentence, why have I even bothered?"

blimey Claire - that's a lot. I hope you can close your computer early today, and genuinely switch off from it all this weekend. Normally I'd be like 'reach out to your network' for support but I now it's definitely ' reach out to your non-HEI friends' for support. What a shit-show.

I've absolutely no idea what you mean (😁😉🤭)

I hope you have a team around you that is as being as supportive to you as you would be to others. But this sucks.

And thank you 👍😀

I've now fallen down a gateway to research search and multiple projects do in fact mention Star Trek including one funded by EPSRC that also involves Lego.

A former Chief Exec of NERC used to say too much research funding went to volcanoes..... maybe it's that or is it a dig at AHRC for funding too much research in the classic sci-fi television🖖

I know this isn't the answer your looking for and feeling like a reply-guy for writing it!
