to allow sufficient time to pack the large amount of equipment we have on board need to be considered .
Meeting with captain and officers @ Jeremy Young
11:00 Do a round through the ship to check that the things are going OK with the various science teams on board . This is one of the most intensive days in our work schedule so I am particularly on the lookout for people getting overtired . Things have gone pretty smoothly today so there is a quiet and efficient hum of activity .
12:00 Lunch – this is a particularly important part of the day in that it is the main time that the whole science team congregate . Mingling is unavoidable as we all squeeze in to the tiny room and it is great time to catch up with people you may not have had a chance to speak to for a couple of days . Today ’ s offering – burger and chips – just the job for people who have been up since 2am .
