A bit too much light pollution but I loved seeing the torches of everyone coming down the hill. We saw some colour too 💜💚🩷 plus we saw a helicopter rescue!

I know this is nothing new, but I just checked my student loan and it's just comically absurd - I've been charged 3x as much interest as I've paid off so far this year; my total loan is almost £10k bigger than when I left university. Completely futile @SF_England

@iamnicksimpson I’m quite happy paying the fees over time and think we’re privileged to receive the education. The frustration is with the super high interest (above base rate) so I’m having no impact 🥲

I think it’s a bit mad that, as an Architect, I pay a good chunk toward paying off my student loan each month, yet the ridiculous 6.25% interest rate means the I’m still not even clearing the interest 🙃 will the balance just continue to rise forever? What’s the point? 🤣

Farming is Scotland's second biggest source of greenhouse gases and a major cause of wildlife loss. Take action with @WWFScotland to ensure climate-appropriate tools for championing local produce and avoiding unnecessary food-miles 👣 wwf.org.uk/scotland/agric…

In Paris, owners of big, heavy cars will have to pay extra to park. Deputy Mayor: “There are no dirt paths , no mountain roads … SUVs are absolutely useless in Paris. Worse, they are dangerous, cumbersome and use too many resources to manufacture." theguardian.com/world/2023/jul…

I’m not interested in having kids but I’ve watched first-hand how difficult managing a job and childcare can be! It’s completely unaffordable and makes it often impossible for people to return to work 🙁
Jeremy Corbyn@jeremycorbyn

There's nothing fiscally credible about keeping parents out of work by denying them the support they need. Universal childcare would boost the economy, raise educational attainment and improve gender equality. Investing in our children benefits us all.

It’s my birthday. I’m 37 and I have some things I’d like to share, in no particular order. 1. No one thinks about you more than you do. That thing from two years ago that keeps you up at night? No one else remembers. Honor the memory and let it go.

Everyday I feel so lucky to be part of such an incredibly motivating and innovative team. This is especially true at times like tonight when we get to host events for like-minded construction professionals 👏🏼💪🏼 #passivhaus #NetZero @ArchitypeUK @WiPUK

The way I can tell Harry Styles has been in Edinburgh is the amount of loose boa feathers there are everywhere 🪶

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

@albionhill It’s so difficult not to answer the phone! But that does help with the perception of being less available! Good to see it’s worked so well ☺️

@SamDugdaleArch Hi. I have never worked more than 4 days a week in the past 30 years. I didn’t get kickback from consultants/ contractors but then I would answer the phone on my day off. Still do! Currently on 2 days a week. That’s more challenging for AT to manage but it generally works ok.

Long time no tweet! 🐦 Do any of my contacts (pref architectural) have experience with a #4dayweek? If you do, I’d love to hear your thoughts! I’m here to be swayed, cause quite frankly it sounds perfect 👏🏼
