I can confirm after my lunchtime walk- winter is here.

Spot the black squirrel, or écureuil noir / schwarzes eichhörnchen if you will!

Somers town, London.

Community wall, stuff like this is always worth stopping and reading, even on a rainy winter London day.

Why is there always a 4x4 somewhere in shot using up too much of the urban realm!?

Lincoln is rather nice. Shame about the recent shift to Reform. St. George flags all over the city's surrounding neighbourhoods. 1215 Magna Carta and 1217 Charter of the Forest saved for rainy tomorrow.

Exploring recent urban extensions in Dún Laoghaire and Cherrywood. One being a huge 60p dwellings passivhaus scheme, the other a TOD on the LUAS tram extension. Nice going Dublin!

A MSc short-course module in numbers and pictures.

5 themes, 4 external speakers, 3 days, 2 site visits (and teaching over 2 campuses) and 1 RTPI president!

Intense, but full of substance!

Hello bsky. First blue-sky post is yesterday's winter sun on campus. Apt. Hoping to rebuild my cosy twitter bubble here as best as I can. 🙏
