      No – in fact, since we normally have, say £500, just for going for conferences myself (and most researchers) would try and make that go as far as possible. I.e if by sleeping on a friend’s couch and booking flights at antisocial hours we can get to go to two or three different conferences for £500, then for sure that’s what I’d do.
