We always swim in the gannel on holiday. It's beautiful. But this tidal estuary has a South West Water overflow. It rained heavily on Sunday. Both husband and child have been in with heads submerged. Both have severe diarrhea and vomiting. I haven't. No alerts have been issued...

Looks set to be a nice evening for @LightNightLeeds. Check out the size of the balls outside Royal Armouries! Plus pirates and light show when the sun goes down!

Wonderful news that Royal Armouries will be hosting the Museums Association conference next year.

Goosebumps seeing Florence Nightingale's legendary graphs at British Library. And more goosebumps seeing The Dark Crystal creatures in their very cool Fantasy exhibition. Magna Carta was pretty awesome too...

Early start this morning to see the Knife Angel from The British Ironwork Centre installed in front of the Royal Armouries and it looks so impressive.

Going to be refreshing twitter A LOT today. Fingers crossed for Jasmin Paris #BM100

The legendary Jasmin Paris has until 9.17pm to finish this 100 mile course in 60 hours. It is going to be close. #smalleuropeanwoman go go go #BM100 👀👀 Keith

Jasmin Paris Jasmin Paris finished loop five of the #BM100 in 59:58:21.

Another belting Easter jousting tournament Royal Armouries and the sun has shined upon us!

The Archers on a Saturday. What the actual. And not even at 2pm. Radio4

Changed my route from the station to work and I now walk past this beauty. Lovely legacy of LEEDS 2023. Plus hurrah it's not cold or raining this morning.

I know people always say this but it really is an exciting time to join Royal Armouries. AND you get to work with PipdPip and me.

Up at 5am to get to London for 9am. On my second London North Eastern Railway train that is stuck at Welwyn Garden City on course for a two hour delay. No one telling us anything. So frustrating.

Another bank holiday weekend and another great weekend of Jousting at Royal Armouries. 90% of tickets sold and a big thanks to the team for all the efforts.

We're looking forward to welcoming hundreds of people from across the museum sector to the Museums Association conference for debate and discussion over the next few days. Our Director General Nat Edwards shares his thoughts on how museums can bring us together. #Museums2024

On the first day of the Museums Association conference, we welcomed #Museum2024 speaker Tracy Brabin WY 🌹, Olga Callaghan and Laura Bell, our Director of Collections to unveil our new display of Ukrainian armour plates from the current conflict - repurposed with ArtArmor

On my way to the Arts Marketing Association digital marketing day on the early train. I'll be discussing the power of people across our TikTok, digital campaigns, YouTube and more. I'm in a pink dress and will probably be found near the tea and coffee station eating biscuits in the breaks.
