You can take the girl out of conservation, but you can't take the conservator out of the girl 😍 (yes the ceramic reconstruction was meant for kids, but I had a great time 😆 next time I'll come armed with some paraloid 💪) A wonderful day @NT_SuttonHoo

It's the first time since the @TheEgyptCentre coffin AB118 first arrived in the labs 25 years ago that both base and lid have been out at the same time. Looking forward to working on this with the @CUConservation students over the coming year.

@willmoorewill I have never heard that church sound as rich and beautiful as it did on Tuesday, with you at the helm. The congregation and organ combined in the most beautiful way. A way that it only could on a day like that 🤍

Museums Journal (@MuseumsAssoc) is looking into how (or whether) visitor behaviour has changed in recent years, esp since covid. Are FoH staff under more pressure? Has your museum had issues with vandalism or rowdiness? DM me in confidence if you’d like to share your story.

@willmoorewill Weirdly, I've also just started the process for diagnosis of adhd 😂 You don't have to go for medication - you can have help using therapy, support groups and more. But certainly if you're struggling, there are only positives to diagnosis

@willmoorewill It depends how you are feeling and coping with every day life (and how long you want to wait/how much you want to pay...) If you want validation of why you do (or don't do) things you do or you're struggling (and want future help/employers knowledge) then DEFINITELY go for it!!
