Thinking of changing course and becoming a vegan chef. Any ideas on how I do this? Do you think I should finish my PhD first? Should I discuss it with my supervisors?

That's a 'wickid' idea! Why not incorporate the two? Perhaps have your viva over a candle-lit sumptuous vegan dinner? Examiners plied with organic wine will surely be less bothered by minor thesis flaws?

Your right Ann! Lots of organic vegan wine and who's going to notice I've only written half of it. Wickid!!

How far are you into the PhD?

Sounds like a good idea to me. May the vegan wine flow freely with lots of vegan choc cake!
