The Cheltenham Science Festival Highlights (by sarah)
The Science festival was amazing - I just picked out the photos here that aren't going into their own write up about a specific event etc.... It was crazy and mad and informative and showed me just how valuable science communication is!
There was the normal fun circus stuff - lovingly science themed 
This rather elegant dude reminds me of someone? 
Mary loved exploring.
Ok so mainly it was running off but excited running off.
She did grudgingly come back when I started counting.
I found a random hospital trolly outside one of the venues!
I found a BBC dude with random props wondering around a little lost so I photographed him and then found him the place he needed to be
I found a ferret!
I don't think it was with the festival but was someone walking their pet - it was funny because one of the suggestions Al had given me for getting more people to fill in the highly important research questionaire was that I should find a ferret!
Unfortunately I just missed him filling the bag with stuff from the hydrant can - but oooo random stuff at a festival - really?
Once more aliens seemed to have taken up residence on the roof of the town hall!
Thursday the kids came and joined me after school - they all loved the explosions bit run by the BBC.
When we first arrived Mary was over awed and just kept saying WOW! and Ooooo
Jean and her friends found the racing car simulator
She rather liked it even if she did keep crashing!
Dad found an old sports car with gears and things inside it
See cogs!
It was rather a nice car
The kids made LED torches
They were all just so excited Mum found knitting and Al and Andy found robots - it was brilliant
