I read the Prospect Union report. I think I'm realising that 20 years in the sector has skewed my compass to really see what's happening. Pay is so far out of line with our roles and professional skills that it’s shocking to read on paper. library.prospect.org.uk/download/2022/…

Very excited about this birthday present, from me, to me 😂

Bedknobs and broomsticks vibes

Forced to go to bed because of a power cut is not really how I envisioned my Friday night if I’m honest

Succumbed to the Halloween merch. I feel no guilt. 💀

Just asked my boyfriend if he would still love me if I was a worm. His response: “you are a worm” 😂

I grew up loving chris riddell illustrations. So with my first bonus that didn’t have to go on essentials I got a pack of his paths cards. Just got round to putting some in a frame 😍 Thanks Chris!

2022 - it’s done

Had to have a quick read of the old CV today to remind myself how long I’ve been working in the museum sector. Had it in my head as 5 years. It’s been NINE whole years. What fresh hell is this

Remembering a wonderful human today. Daffs always make me think of you - You’re missed!

Goodnight sweet prince 😭

Exciting update! 🎉 The winner of our logo competition will get free conference registration for a year! For more information, please visit babao.org.uk/news-and-annou…

Museum peeps (especially those of Manchester knowledge) in a few weeks I’m off to Manchester to wander round museums with my Dad. What is a Manchester must? Where shall we eat? What should we not miss?

Ready and excited for day 3 of BABAO_Conference_2023

Now it’s definitely real (still didn’t believe it until I got my student card), I’m delighted to say I have received PhD funding from Reading Uni and NHM to look for Thalassaemia in the adult cemetery population of Poundbury camp

A good plan day (Mary Lewis thought you’d appreciate this)

Best Post Day! I first met Subhadra Das 8 years ago and she was (and still is) one of the most interesting and intelligent people I’ve met. She was also the first in the museum sector who made me feel capable of being there. I knew I’d be reading a book by her one day! 💕

The moment we stopped watching Bridgerton Let us explain ... Things were going great and we were really getting into Season 3. That is until we watched this scene unfold before our eyes ....
