@AndrewBasham5 @sjmm_alberti Preserving a spark in perpetuity weirdly appeals as a long-term collections care challenge

Dear science & technology museums Twitter, what are the most sublime and the most ridiculous collection queries you've had?

@CollectiveMarg @johngiblin @sarahguppy @NtlMuseumsScot @sjmm_alberti @eloquentpeasant @brucester74 I love that you have this photo to hand for any feast bowl related chat.

Essential work visit today @NtlMuseumsScot - thrilled to see our mascot Robert... I’m guessing his last location was down to @sjmm_alberti ? He looked very happy on his plinth but now on to his next adventure. @johngiblin @eloquentpeasant @CollectiveMarg @brucester74

@sarahguppy @NtlMuseumsScot @sjmm_alberti @johngiblin @eloquentpeasant @CollectiveMarg @brucester74 You found him! We hunted last week but no luck.

There is now a government petition to teach Britain's colonial past as part of the UK's compulsory curriculum. Sign it here! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/3240… #TeachRaceMigrationEmpire #BlackHistoryMatters #DecolonisetheCurriculum

Really cool to visit @NtlMuseumsScot internationally significant Collections Centre in #Granton. An asset to North #Edinburgh and #Scotland.

Our technicians are a brave bunch! ow.ly/rKUa301GdEC #Museums

Photocopier distractions - @AshWhiffin and baby praying mantis enticing us away from morning tasks @NtlMuseumsScot

Nice to be back @NtlMuseumsScot Collections Centre with @StChante.

@DoorsOpenDays in entomology. Spider hunters, bird sized moths and some seriously bonnie butterflies @NtlMuseumsScot

Checking out the ceramic collections at National Museums Collection Centre @DoorsOpenDays with @Adrienne_Eliz

Glorious new exhibition of models & paintings of fungi in the Library Gallery @TheBotanics rbge.org.uk/whats-on/event…

@clioclothed @StChante @cherie2302 Ha! Agreed! With the right number of hair pins and a bit of attitude, it could definitely be jaunty.

@cherie2302 @clioclothed We also found a 3,100 year old hat in the last stores move....so much more to learn...

@cherie2302 @clioclothed It's true! The Umbrian Madonna. We're about to launch a project to find out more about her.

My pleasure @ReevesNicky Looking forward to seeing your new store soon!
