I have a somewhat strange reason for creating this post (which I won't get into), but it will be apparently not out of character to most, as it will seem to be yet another turnip/penguin/frozen pea thing...
anyway, I was having quite an extraordinary day a couple of weeks ago, which left me in quite an unusual state of mind. On this day, in that odd state of mind, I attended a genetics lecture, the penultimate lecture in a series by a brilliant lecturer, Dr Paul Sunnucks. He explained that it was his second last lecture and that his final one would be about something fairly non genetics related, so if anyone had any final questions, this was the time to voice them. Only one person asked; as you've probably guessed, it was me. I raised my hand and asked my question: "Are you going to juggle tomorrow?" which was almost as stupid as it sounded, except that I did know he could juggle. He threw the question back at the lecture theatre asking how much interest there was in seeing such a thing, most of us raised our hands (most were also smirking at me) and so the next day, at the end of his final lecture, he juggled. The room was pitch dark and the balls glowed in the dark, however, the photos were taken with a flash, so you can't see most of what we saw, but the following pictures show what we saw for two brief moments.
Appologies for the picture quality, they lost a lot in the resizing.

I like juggling, well not juggling as I cannot do it, but watching juggling. And glow in the dark balls!! What more could you ask for?
