Hoxne weir with 0.75m on the flow gauge
Just unpleasant at this level. It was nice that the sun came out for a couple of hours.

Out for a lunchtime walk and noticed that a clump white flowers were a mixture...

Hoxne weir with 0.5m on the Billingford flow gauge. Left hand shoot, maybe stay close to the bridge support. Nothing too scary. And yes, it was raining.

Another rainy day, this time at the weir by Mendham Mill
Sadly the natives are not friendly and access requires skirting barbed wire and do not trespass notices.

A visit to the rainy River Chet at the end of January
I am Petro Dobromylskyj, always known as Peter. I'm a vet, trained at the RVC, London University. I was fortunate enough to intercalate a BSc degree in physiology in to my veterinary degree. I was even more fortunate to study under Patrick Wall at UCH, who set me on course to become a veterinary anaesthetist, mostly working on acute pain control. That led to the Certificate then Diploma in Veterinary Anaesthesia and enough publications to allow me to enter the European College of Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia as a de facto founding member. Anaesthesia teaches you a lot. Basic science is combined with the occasional need to act rapidly. Wrong decisions can reward you with catastrophe in seconds. Thinking is mandatory.
I stumbled on to nutrition completely by accident. Once you have been taught to think, it's hard to stop. I think about lots of things. These are some of them.
