Welcome to our blog!

So 2 postdocs walk into a bar looking bedraggled, empty out all their pockets to find a few sharpies, bus tokens and hopefully some spare change. They pool their money for a couple of drinks and slump down with a sigh of relief. Time to debrief.

Dr J and I used to work on the same floor in the institute where I did my Ph.D. and where J came for a postdoctoral position from across the pond. The last year for me, and the first for him were very busy times but we helped each other through by providing counseling over a pint or 5, a bottle of shiraz, chocolate and sushi. These sessions were instrumental in getting me through the hardest year of my life and now that I have moved for my own postdoctoral work, and we are unable to chat, bitch, wine, or cry in person - why not start a blog!

This blog will be multi-faceted and will discuss everything from our trials and tribulations in the lab, in love, and in life.
