Interesting immersive experience at Excel London today #Tutankhamen
Loved the approach to #heritageinterpretation for ancient #Egypt but too much queuing between sections

Lucky enough to spend Wednesday accompanying a spectacular Trajanic #Roman aureus on loan from @nationalmuseumsscotland to @trimontiumtrust in Melrose together with colleagues from Scottish #History and #Archaeology in the Spring sunshine!

Lucky enough to be at the opening of this exhibition at Queen's Gallery, Holyrood Palace. Fascinating overview of photographic techniques over the last century. Would have benefitted from more photographs in Scotland and some imagery or artefacts of the cameras they used at the time

One of the benefits of working in a multidisciplinary museum is that I occasionally indulge my passion for baking. Dinosaur cakes this time 🎂 🤩

Sad day yesterday at the funeral of Gordon Maxwell, but I count myself as fortunate to have worked closely with him over a number of years and learnt a huge amount which led to my PhD research and publications
