The postgrads and postdocs of University of Glasgow ‘s No. 9 put together a virtual pub/coffee break WhatsApp chat so we weren’t isolated from one another & I’ve never been more thankful to be a part of Scottish History at UofG than I am these days. #phdchat #scottishhistory #covid19UK

Consider joining our panel “Courts and Spaces” virtually to see our attempt at using video editing software. Even if it’s not good quality editing, I can assure you the papers are really interesting and it’ll be good fun!

Still time to sign up to receive our taster video for the 2021 conference. The papers are excellent and there's even a bit of Scotland in the form of James IV, James V and good old Mary, Queen of Scots, courtesy of yours truly. Sign up below! dur.ac.uk/imems/events/e…

I know it's a bit of a silly thing to celebrate given the current global climate but I've been completely self-funded since I started my undergrad in 2012 and for the first time in my life, I have funding, even if it's just for a few months! 🎉

My officemate/pub partner/all around top notch pal Dr Andrew Lind is making his tv premier tomorrow at 9pm by lending his expertises to the discussion of the Scottish Civil War. Give it a watch - I’m sure you’ll learn something!

My dad recently uncovered the original plans for the neighbourhood I grew up in (in America). Cromwell Court was the original name of the street I lived but they changed it at some point... to Stuart Court.

Hilariously surprised this morning at the National Records of Scotland to see my husband promoting their “Prisoners or Patients” exhibit. (Black and white is the not criminally insane husband…)
