Women's Voices Conference 2025 at @lutherkingtheology.bsky.social. 100% worth the 8hr round trip from Glasgow to Manchester but would love to see a Scottish Ecumenical version. Who's in?

Wild garlic season is on its way. Just peeking up in the garden. Something to give thanks for.

Reading 'Good Guys' a book about male allyship in the workplace by David G. Smith and W. Brad Johnson. The target audience is men, and the abbreviated self-awareness as SA. This woman can't help but read SA as sexual assault. Having to really concentrate on reading it as self awareness.

This symposium is already fascinating. Currently listening to a plenary discussion from Ghana about the possible practicalities of appointment of a denominational Pastor for Female Affairs / Women's ministry advisor.

At that age when rather than being in the mosh pit, I'm observing its movements (from the back with my ear plugs in) like one would watch a murmuration of swallows. Dead Pony at Queen M Union, Glasgow.

Advent 2. A gingerbread house that looked better than it tasted and the Royal Conservatoire Scotland Christmas Choral Showcase. Always the highlight of my advent season.

Service of Remembrance today to mark the end of National Grief Awareness Week. Healthcare Professionals aren't immune from grief, but often need to keep a brave face on for others. This space and time hopefully enabled them to lay some of that down.

Being away is good, but it's nice to get back to the hills.

Spent a rainy, but thrilling day learning about all things PhD at Luther King House. Met some awesome folk doing fascinating research.

Final night of my retreat so I suppose I should get the writing done that I promised I'd finish. Not before stopping at my favourite bookshop in St Andrews though for a wee haul!

Morning view from Retreat Day 2 is not nearly as pretty. But I can hear the waves, the squeek of oystercatchers and the kettle is on.
