Friday I bounced up the stairs wondering how to do the marathon. Monday, I'm bouncing from the marathon & wondering how to do the stairs! I ran to raise funds for @childrensociety because they lobby for children and give them hope. Plse give if you can: justgiving.com/fundraising/gr…

Was just looking at #hilarymantel's 'A Place of Greater Safety' and thinking it's next on my list of stuff to read, when I saw she had passed away. Very sad. Her Cromwell trilogy was astonishing, from the opening sentence to the closing words.

Great to hear @ninapearlman talk about @UCL_Culture work using augmented reality for better engagement with UCL collections!

@jennyagriffiths @jennyagriffiths thankfully it was something I read (ctl.columbia.edu/resources-and-…)

@nickgrindle Ouch. I hope the lesson wasn’t too painful

'One of the hardest things to learn is that the sincerity of our intentions is no guarantee of the purity of our practice' (adapted from Stephen Brookfield). As a parent I learned this pretty quickly. As a teacher, I only just found out.

I enjoyed this: 'Up betimes, and down to chamber, without putting on clean linen, thinking only to keep to my chamber to do business today; but I find that I was not fully awake or ready to do business, and so was fain to go up again and dress myself' - Samuel Pepys #wfh1667

Rules about kits are made for a reason but @premierleague has got this one badly wrong #NoHomeKit

To paraphrase my esteemed colleague @jennyagriffiths, this work is the fruit of a lockdown well used! Stop-motion LEGO® animations for learning linear algebra tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

A lesson in assessment design.

Even the pre-pandemic me didn't travel much (sadly) but I'm delighted with this news: @UCL expands opportunities for sustainable travel | Sustainable UCL - UCL – University College London ucl.ac.uk/sustainable/ne…

If you change your flight with @British_Airways they may shrewdly read out the cost digit by digit. PLEASE ask them to read it out AS A NUMBER too!! (Or pay a fortune like my friend Mark Meynell): markmeynell.net/2021/09/29/a-s…

Looking for something to do this weekend? @CarlaWashbourne will be onsite at St Giles Ruins in Maldon for this year's @heritageopenday, where you can learn more about disease, medicine and hospitals in the Middle Ages! #HODs buff.ly/3kVA8Vr

@PP_Rubens Not the best haircut to have when you need to be plucked from a river in the nick of time ...

3/3 Saint Maurus of Glanfeuil, walking on water, saves St. Placidius from drowning. Not actually by Fouquet but also from the Hours of Simon de Varye and too excellent to miss.

Simon de Varie meets the Virgin & child in facing pages of his beautiful book of hours, c. 1455. Painted by Jean Fouquet, whose day is today.

Excited to share this with everyone!

Really pleased to see this new article from @eringriffey at @AucklandUni on continuity between pre1649 and post1660. Restoring Henrietta Maria’s English Household in the 1660s: Continuity, Kinship and Clientage tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

@GeorgeVertue Definitely!
