Cream spot ladybird

We're always excited when we see a ladybird in our garden because Paddy invested in a box of larvae last year. Is this one of their progeny, we wonder?

After our morning walk (OK to begin with, painful towards the end), I settled down to another day at the interface. I had hoped to return to my research assessment work, but I had rather a lot of the day job to deal with first. In the end I only managed to complete a few small admin tasks for the research assessment work. I should have more luck with this tomorrow.

Exercise today: walking (10,627 steps).
