Out causing mischief in the highest village in Scotland, clambering up a scrap heap from an old mind.

Good morning from Scotland’s highest village. Spending the weekend in the clouds with my pals and this precious baby.

I thought Glasgow looked great this morning, but Edinburgh has really come out swinging.

Over at the Roslin Institute today talking about effective evaluation of engagement.

Scots, if you want to know how the trains are doing today- I just got the train to Edinburgh from
Central.

Currently the best way to keep up to date with the activity of parliamentary committees is to follow them on X/Twitter with alerts enabled.
This needs to change.
The KE unit abandoned X but there is a notable lack of representation on Bluesky (@lordsukspacecom.parliament.uk an exception)

Good morning.
Glasgow looking great this morning. So busy yet sleepy. Like me.

Nearly half a million folk watching me get pulled up for not being respectful at the university of Oxford over on insta is wild.

The DJI pocket 3 is 20% off today.
I adore this camera. The quality is great and I’m less self conscious recoding on it in public place. Heartily recommend if you want to get into TikTok & Reels for 2026.

(I’m patiently waiting on the pocket 4 being released)

All gone 🥰

I remember when I huge box of books arrived I was so incredibly embarrassed that I had so many books that I’d never sell. I envisaged drop feeding them into charity shops. Can’t believe they’re gone!

(I’ve asked the publishers if I can get more, but they have had issues with in UK)
Off to the post office to drop off some of my books. Think I only have 3 left in stock. So if you want cute science projects over the holidays be quick www.jamiebgall.co.uk/shop

The men on the train keep periodically screaming.
I hate to ruin their good time, but I don’t like it 😭

Great to be at the Cardiff University School of Medicine day for patient & public involvement & engagement.
I’m here talking about some of my favourite engagement projects: a story book to talk about parental addiction, tactile astronomical maps for visually impaired people & so many more.

My job is mainly sitting on trains.
Today I’m off to Cardiff to speak about Creative Engagement with research.

(The sun struck just at the right moment to make the train selfie incredibly pretentious)

As well as being pin badge pals, me and David are kilt twinsies. (Silver mist)

A parent of a queer child got in touch to show me what she has done to show her support. 😍😍🥰
The Doctor would be so proud.

Full set of Doctor Diamonds shipping out to Canada tonight.
Such a cute little lineup.

Sounds like a Scottish parenting guide.

Why do a feel so stressed for this little mushroom.
Leave her alone!

Today is quite a mix.
• 3 hour RSPB Scotland advisory meeting
• Zooming into a rural Irish primary school to talk about farting cats
• Now recording an interview with a director of Research England

No wonder friends don’t know what I do. I barely know myself
