Attempt at catching up

 Rest of 2022 activities

• Trip to Mardid and FOSSA to finalise the build of 10 SAIN units. 
• Attended Highways conference in Birmingham with Richard to try and scope out what others were doing on bridge structural health monitoring. Not a lot as it tuns out.
• Lots of trips to the static in Wales!
• Trips to London to investigate collaboration with a drone provider on bridge monitoring Aeongreen. No money though so it was back to DIY again.
• Attendance at the Glasgow Pocketcube workshop. Always a great bash put on by Alba Orbital. Some investigation into collaboration with Scotish remote monitoring outfit Krucial. Didn't come to anything.
• The issue with SAIN was, and still is to some extent, it needs an injection of money to the tune of £100k to take it to a production level. We (I) have already put that amount in through the consulting business. Didn't really want to go for VC money, probably a mistake, but hey, ho, such is life.

Then 2023

• Trip to London to discus SAIN with Jacobs engineering, David Bradley. Again no go, no money.
• Trip to Budapest

Then 2024

Phew.....as you can see the work aspects have started to take a back seat to the holidays. Long may it continue. I will summarise the SAIN position at some point just to state where things ended up.
