      Yes he does, his name is Quackers. He’s been a key part of my experimental team and been on most of my experiments at Diamond Light Source. I say most as I recently forgot to take him on one and my team were very disappointed in me. The experiment didn’t go very well either so I’ve learnt my lesson! He usually sits at my desk though. He’s a well traveled duck too as he’s been to Hawaii, Madrid, Sicily, Stockholm and other places!
