Feeling guilt, and the consequences, of not having taken to the streets to protest the loss of free university education in the 90s. #studentsnotcustomers #research

@AngryWagtails Might try pickling as well. I do love Japanese pickled radish.

@AngryWagtails Ooh, good tip. They grow so easily but I never know what to do with them. If you roast them they taste of nothing.

@RichardMcLellan @EucalyptAus I'll never forget doing the NVIS surveys in the Ilyarrie woodlands with @WWF_Australia. Magical to experience them as a dominant woodland species rather than street trees in Perth

This year I’m going for a species that’s ‘local’ to where I live on Western Australia’s midwest coast: the Ilyarrie (Eucalyptus erythrocorys) - aka the Red-capped Gum. They’re in beautiful full flower all around us right now.

@ACSarahAC @neilhimself They are at Boffins. Signed copies of Chu's Day at the Beach, Odd and the Frost Giants, Fortunately, the Milk and Coraline were all available as of lunchtime today.

@neilhimself Can't wait to see you "In Conversation" tomorrow night.
Will any of your signed books available at the show be kids books? I'd love to bring home a signed Fortunately (or Chu or Crazy Hair or The Wolves in the Walls) for my boys.

Looks like we're not the only ones following a @neilhimself gig with a New Pornographers gig in Perth tonight.

@antday Only time I ever needed to use my gears when I lived in Holland was against the wind.

Each year, on the windiest day of the year, the Dutch Headwind Cycling Championships take place on the Oosterscheldekering Storm Surge Barrier.
Over 200 competitors ride the 8.5 km course against 100+ km/hr winds on upright single-speed bikes. Watch more: youtu.be/bb_sozJb01Q
