The UCU Northern Ireland Regional AGM/Conference took place today. We were pleased to welcome the Gen Sec Jo Grady to @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social campus. Not surprisingly, the voluntary severance scheme and ongoing related issues were a key topic for discussion.

My big news! For ages, I've been thinking of holding my own book festival, and now it's happening! From 5-10th May, Dromore will hold its FIRST EVER book festival! Lots of wonderful authors confirmed in local venues, including the beautiful cathedral, and hopefully more to come!
Aggggh, the nerves!

Love is a complex mix of emotions, behind which is a cocktail of hormones and neurotransmitters firing in the brain and body. And chemists, it turns out, aren’t immune to these chemical reactions and the silly things they make you do. cen.acs.org/people/Chemi...

Four customers today. At one stage, I really did think it was going to be the first day in 29 years with no one through the door. I know it's the cold weather etc etc, but it's hard to stay upbeat when it's quiet. Want to buy a book and keep me busy wrapping tomorrow?

Sad to report that our esteemed colleague, Sir Fraser Stoddart, passed away yesterday in Melbourne, surrounded by family. His legacy is the 90+ academics he trained who continue to push the boundaries of human knowledge. Vale Fraser.

Happy birthday, everyone!

On this day, in 1845, the Queen’s Colleges of Belfast, Cork and Galway were formally brought into existence.

Thank you to everyone who has helped make Queen's the special place it is.

A word of caution: it might feel like that grant/paper/review cannot possibly wait over the Christmas period, but you can't get time with friends and family back. You likely won't be like "really wish I'd submitted that" in 5 years time but you might regret not spending time with those you love.

It's Small Business Saturday, which could, thanks to Storm Darragh, be a very small Saturday. If your favourite small business has a website, perhaps you could use it if you can't visit them in person today. Did I mention that I have one...?
