Scouting for a Night at the Museum
Last week, my PhD supervisor (Maureen Farrell) and I went to the Hunterian Museum on the University of Glasgow campus to scout out the space we'll occupy for the Fantasy Scotland: Night at the Museum! There, I saw the actual sorting chair![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uPFaauUvXHx6nKucGCiXBqJh5hTH84sxmGjwPJ_APxveM-L4Q0LUay0kaZor6ZDT6pcxSrTIAgFZgrB4J-hdrzdwjkICYSt8k6fVFymX3hzxhrTS7xSUFDH6upHLfQGFrNiZU_rpFO6hvBVvVhqfv8uz376Q=s0-d)
- actually known as the Blackstone Chair where award-winning PhD students get the honor of giving their VIVAs.![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tNHV3DevzktASZpyRHKdq0oPh2_dLSh7RUBt737GiBOBIU32BtBnPVkI6h-b4702BfmIKkatSfpQt7HZiRahtNAzAfrYZ3ro-gfnTywkBjahL8maozJ52eP_LSSjE7DLmIXGLWyPfsfTkaNP6RgGexdIOiBmT9=s0-d)
After the sorting chair, the first thing to greet you in the museum is the skeleton of NESSIE!![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uuyy-kd2ub9SHz_FyX3Q2395vzLJ_USxjZzTuLQIvxxTFD_051M7QfgNsST_GWzEd0gk72z28R4yXaxwvb2aWefvGemXx9jrcgMGrLw973qS2Dhfh3GUfIVNy30JMlFl1b354NKhjOISnPCMALww=s0-d)
Our space will be in the back - completely transformed through the use of free and leftover art supplies - cross your fingers we can pull off something wonderful!![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uoOgsKtCeA71oUi0G9qNq8fTnvCbVyihZ2RLYrkJhyLuivHv6dCd90cFLfmPfA9HZ6vMi7Sx3BTFRke3KofCIMoaj8q26dhWKzYCit2qtTsqUjY_ktmb_MVnQVw_usnfcXRailJTL8c6Usf1vX=s0-d)
Afterwards, Maureen gave me a wee tour about.![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_t3FJOzoLC-YaHbLicMm-6rjB_bzbohTYHdSiju_216pcawy7pY8xz0Z_kS2y3q95ied0WhM-Du4vuzh4MH6qGczx3-N9kTK8xH7zltdfGpWCWiUQFvCeD_cX9pPF5UZO-jpwFA0b3d4Dbu5Lt2qrKDwQ=s0-d)
Can you believe she was actually married HERE?![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tBjkuxBik9I4tIbsGOa4Ygz6hdOxXEB0KWMt2VWGW6YurAqcfHiR3oJbkNxTMIvESsnJhBYtsAxjykuQgYUrPUwjwqKE3tAgCqhXSTSiRKI1l5oQOMRFdYLzGy6yPTO2eHn66jn8pnBnQGM-x0=s0-d)
Wow. I'm truly lucky to be able to claim a part of this amazing campus!
