@NottmGirlsHigh Will all the NGHS accounts be moving over please?

@sarfrazmanzoor Yeah, the algorithm figured out my work was connected to the culture wars and now it feeds me a toxic diet of the worse of humanity and I can’t really look at this app any more.

Why are all the people in my ‘For You’ feed spouting bigoted brainless shite?

@sarfrazmanzoor I just knew Layla really wanted to and hoped you made it!

@bramblescram I did but really want to go to London too- why?

August 11 2011 and 2024. My daughter Laila turns 13 today. Yes I know having twin T shirts is irredeemably cheesy but it's what she wanted.

@sarfrazmanzoor Waiting to see what the DJ plays next…

He's talking over the music.

How do I find out if the @young_vam have done a visitor evaluation they might be willing to chat to me about? Pleeeeeease....🙏🙏🙏

@AileenPeirce @PipdPip Same mix of plants here despite us all living in very different parts of the country.

@PipdPip What a beautiful mix of colour!

The garden’s having a bit of a lull at the moment between tulips and peonies but the rhododendrons, azaleas and aquilegia are lovely this year

@JohnELewis @petepaphides @guardian I don’t suppose you got a photo of the cello? I think I might know the former school boy previous owner (now in his 40s) 😂

@petepaphides @guardian Bless you, Pete! He is a top chap, and very funny.

So much to love about this interview with Jonny Greenwood by John Lewis in @guardian. Two great music enthusiasts (and lovely people) clearly recognising something of their own passions in each other and relaxing into a great conversation. theguardian.com/music/article/…

@sarfrazmanzoor (English not her first language…’describe’ not ‘discredit’)

@sarfrazmanzoor My friend went and this is how she perfectly summed it up:

This is by Neil McCormick in the Telegraph.

@GrudzinskiRg Ooh, amazing - is this their permanent interpretation do you know? @leedscastleuk

@bramblescram Leeds castle tell the story of the castle through the women who have owned and lived there. Fascinating history and just been through a reinterpretation leeds-castle.com/her-castle/

Two questions please amazing Twitter heritage people... 1) What heritage days out exist for a family to immerse themselves in women's history? There are plenty of places with a strand of their story about a historical woman, but is there anywhere where is it the main story?

@AileenPeirce I got: Royalty: KP - Queen Vic Hever - Anne Boleyn Writers: Jane Austen House Brontë Parsonage Hill Top - Beatrix Potter Greenways - Agatha Christie Monks House - Virginia Woolf Other: Shibden - Gentleman Jack Sissinghurst - Vita Sackville West Hardwick - Bess

@bramblescram Then there’s Hever down here which is Anne Boleyn-tastic and Hatfield for Elizabeth I. But there are many more sites where the main character is male.

@AileenPeirce Thanks @AileenPeirce - my instinct and googling so far suggest there are very few...would you agree? Even in the NT following the work to amplify women's voices in 2018/9, they are still an add-on or a sub-story.

@bramblescram Marble Hill - all about Henrietta Howard and a great family visit. It’s not a whole day out but plenty else to see in the area.

@ace_national @nationaltrust @EnglishHeritage @LeicsMusStud @MuseumsAssoc @kidsinmuseums @bernarddonoghue @alva_uk @sixteenthCgirl @lizmuseums

2) Which universities have courses specifically about women's histories? Thank you brilliant people.

To mark the end of a 25 year conservation project, this is a rare chance to be completely surrounded and engulfed by the 13 astonishing Gideon tapestries - complete with new lighting and dramatic sound track.

Six books unified by an originality of voice, accessible, insightful, each one a masterpiece. May we present the first ever #WomensPrize for #NonFiction shortlist sponsored by @findmypast. Huge congratulations to the shortlisted authors and our heartfelt thanks to the judges!

@AndrewT76149833 @alexarmstrong @LeeFryer10 @RishiSunak First you would have to imagine a world in which all the leaders he mentioned were actually black.

Same people crying over Lee Anderson’s opinions were very quiet when Humza Yousaf went on a racist tirade against white people. The same bigots who think “coconut” is okay and chants for genocide and intifada are acceptable. Why do the left have two-tier outrage for racism? Is it just not okay when a white person says it?
