In town to get my biannual pre-term haircut, spice shopping and stopped by the listening post for @longplayertrust.bsky.social, currently installed in glorious surrounds of @exetercathedral.bsky.social. Essential breathing space, poised between summer and autumn .

Packed but excellent holiday, involving some of my favourite people and places. First - up to the Borders for a dear friend's Significant Birthday and possibly the fanciest dinner I've ever eaten

Have been flitting around at #BSHS2025 from 1990s policy wonks to 1910s flies and the women who studied them. In the meantime, have some shots of Chiara Ambrosio's fab plenary talk on images as experiments, which I'm still mulling over...

Critical context: Misch and Lucy were rescued as orphaned cubs, never learned how to be Bears and wouldn't stand a chance in the wild. We've been visiting them since they arrived in Devon: here they are in situ last year.
