Norfolk is a long way away from anywhere, and if I were you, I shouldn't start from here. By the time you get to the outskirts of Cromer, any distinctions between science, beachcombing, social commentary, writing and animal husbandry have started to blur. When the process is complete, you know you've arrived at the End Of The Pier Show. So, welcome. Find somewhere to park your unicycle. Pull up a girrafe chair. Make yourself comfortable.

Why Are You Reading This? Support Science Is Vital Instead.

Science is vital to our health and wealth. Our government wants to cut science funding - when countries such as the US are hoping to beat the recession by funding science more. Even India is increasing science funds by %150. So, please would all my readers in the UK who haven't done so support the Science is Vital campaign and sign the petition? Please, do it now. Stop reading this post, this instant, and add your voice to the >22,100 people who have decided that science is something we really cannot afford to live without.

  2. Sadly I shan't be able to go to the rally. I will however be supporting science by going on a fungus foray with a lot of local fungologists, many of whom are, in fact, scientists.
