@WilliamKilbride That’s great news! Can we choose where it’s planted or at least know where it is so we can visit? I’ll miss finding your card in my physical mailbox sometime in June though.

We're not sending Christmas cards from #dpc this year. Instead, we're planting a tree for every one of our 154 members. The office won't close officially till Friday but only a few of us checking emails occasionally till then ... dpconline.org/news/happy-hol…

Ever wondered what it takes to become an archivist? To become a guardian of history, one often needs a master’s degree in history, library science, or archival studies. Classes cover document preservation, digital archiving, and cataloging. #ArchivesU #ArchivesMonth

@richove @JTullock And really - why does no one seem to know that you can log on to a WhatsApp account on any device so long as you can authenticate with a phone. The data’s on a server somewhere, it’s just a local version on the phone.

Happy #ara2023 to anyone I know who's there! Say hello to my Bristol Archives colleague Alec if you spot him - he'll be starting the Aber distance learning course this year!

@facebook I made an account with you and you disabled it half an hour later. The appeal only asked for a photograph, not formal ID so my authenticity couldn’t be effectively proved. The appeal was denied with no further recourse. You have effectively digitally excluded me.

@richove And of course - the messages don’t actually live on the phone - they live on a server somewhere….

@HelenRicha53 @MichaelRosenYes I learned to read by osmosis before I started school and then had to learn ITA in the first 2 years of primary school (Scotland in the late 60s). ITA was always a ‘second language’ just for school work because I still read ‘real’ books at home.

@MichaelRosenYes How does ‘the Ofsted brigade’ think children learn to read? Not all learn in the same way. How about the ‘Look and Say’ method?.., or ITA’?… ‘The Apprenticeship Method’?

Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷
While Ofsted inspectors are going round schools telling teachers that Early Years children mustn't read books with 'non-decodable' texts, parents who use libraries and buy books are having great fun reading books with their children at home...

Do I know anyone involved with the Aberystwyth distance learning course? One of our volunteers is currently working on the Cataloguing module and I have some questions...

@mikeparkerwales On the plus side train travel is now virtually free because you can nearly always get a full refund for delayed travel.

@cocteautriplets I wrote my undergraduate dissertation on transport to the Small Isles nearly 40 years ago. Nothing much has changed timetable wise but at least you don’t have to change boats to go ashore any more.
