New article by my brilliant colleagues on the @womenandalcoho1 project, @DiasDorota @dr_stafford99 on policing women's drinking in 19th Century Britain and Poland. One for @drinkingstudies colleagues.

This article is a part of @womenandalcoho1 Project founded by @NCN_PL, as well as @SSA_Addiction paper on spontaneous human combustion among drinking women by @pamplemoussepam and Iain Smith onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ad… (2/3).

Running another writers' retreat today, this time for some CDTs in Engineering here at Bristol uni. Took a lovely walk in the winter sunshine up to the tower on Brandon Hill at lunch and watched some squirrels. Perfect inspiration and rest ready for more writing this afternoon.

Running a lovely retreat for the @cabotinstitute Institute at Uni of Bristol today. We have a little room called 'The Garden Room', overlooking one of the parks owned by the University & we are all sitting cosily writing together as the sun goes down over the trees. Perfect!
