Goodbye joblesstrackworld - I shall miss your seemingly endless ability to distract me from the dull tedium of joblessness. As of March, I shall be unable to read every single post on every single 'what tyre' thread - woe is me. Instead I shall be doing numerical simulations of ice stream retreat in Antarctica... it's a tough job, but someone's got to do it

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! congrats mate, shall be super cold but not many people set foot on that lump of land/ice. Getting a job is still hard work, and it gets very demoralizing at times.

Hi Stu - yup. I never left - I've effectively been writing research proposals and papers full time for a year for absolutely no pay. But its paid off in the end. Where are you based these days?

tails - alas - I dont actually get to go to Antarctica. I will simply be sitting in front of a computer simulating ice retreat. All the field work has been done already :(. But still - its quite a cool job, and I still hold out hope of getting there someday...

Still in Ed. Appear to be a fellow now though which is nice! Where's the job? And congratulations of course!

I read that too fast the first time and thought you said you were simulating "ice cream treats in Antarctica"!
Must read more slowly and stop skimming.
Congrats on the new job!

Going to Antarctica in Winter would have been fun

Stu - will be in Durham. Not a fellow - that'll be the next attempt! I am still a visiting fellow to Edinburgh too... I was up in Edinburgh last week and was disappointed to see that the Hutton Club posters have gone downhill nowadays. Sometimes I think those posters will be my only real legacy...
Ice cream retreat - now that would be a global disaster of immense proportions!

Yep, posters have definitely gone downhill since you left!!
Enjoy Durham - had a look round last year and looked like a nice place.
