Great to see engagment Eat Sleep Game with ecologists to make #AmongRipplesShallowWaters. Really appreciate their comment in #game4nature that "ecologists deserve to supported, appreciated and their frustrations understood".

Fascinating soil safari Groundswell, zooming into soil to show healthy vs unhealthily roots and signs of earthworm activity.

Highlights from #Groundswell23 : - Brilliant talk on #farming, #foodquality and #climate; learnt how obesity is linked to nutrient poor food - Awesome farm equipment - #ghostponds and how to restore them - #soilsafari

Love the sound of rain on a polytunnel, and amused at the irony of simultaneously watering my plants #phdlife

Thank you so much! I am very happy that you gave me the opportunity to share the game at what was a thoroughly enjoyable and informative conference.

I had a great time presenting both my PhD and boardgame projects RAMIRAN2023 - it was ace to talk on a stage where David Bowie performed. Well done to the organisers for a fantastic conference with great after conference activites, I particularly enjoyed the punting.

And that's a wrap on my field experiment, sugarbeet harvested and last of soil samples collected. And just in time with storm Ciaran moving in! Cranfield University Future Biogas FoodBioSystems DTP
