Perfect timing with my palaeography teaching starting back next week as well!

Ha ha they were very amenable to proper book rests and no gloves! And I did all the moving around of things too as they didn't want to touch the records! Refreshing! (Big thanks also to Conservation for getting everything sorted!)

Awwhhh in that case you're very welcome! To be honest it was nice to be able to do some proper research. I've had her turn up in a couple of other records since we filmed that, too.

Again?!! Hee hee.

It was a very popular 1581 Charter!! We had your earliest deed and the fifteenth century Kattryn of Hull accounts out too! It's the advantage of moving our Open Day events to the searchroom - we have tables the Charter fits on!

Brilliant! Sorry I missed you (I worked the undergraduate Open Days all last weekend so we split the load!).

It was my privilege to be your chair! Sorry I had to run off, but @paulaakpan.bsky.social was brilliant! I am now officially knackered though after running about this afternoon! 🤣

I will admit I've succumbed to Waterstones click and collect. I'll pick up tomorrow morning.

It was lovely to see you! Here's to @yorkfestofideas.bsky.social Part 2 on Tuesday!

I said that!! 🤣

Thanks all! We made it (just!) in 9hrs 45! In a fair bit of pain now! 🤣

Thank you!! We are 30km down (of 40km!) but it's a bit warm!!
