One of the perks of upgrading your hotel room is that you get treated to Tesco magazine. #blessed.

This here is what's called a hairline space. It is about 0.2mm wide and is one of 178 of them. This is the detail that goes into typesetting the Show Guide that nobody notices if you've done your job well. Enjoy the Show everyone! #mandhshow
A time range written as 09:45–10:25. Before the en-dash, there are three dots indicating the positioning of a hairline space.

Finally, a sunny day!

Great to see the menopause exhibition open at @vaginamuseum.bsky.social last night. Congratulations to everyone for making it happen at last!
A post-it note with the words "I can talk about it openly without judgement or stigma" An interactive piece of interpretation! It is a 16th century description of a witch which you can write on with a marker pen A list of what Pliny the Elder has to say about menopause and menstruation. The menstruation list is long but the menopause list is a single sentence.

Very much enjoyed the Medieval Women In Their Own Words at @britishlibrary.bsky.social, although I did discover that I am 'slightly' suspected of being a witch...
A lion's skull Intro panel for the Medieval Women exhibition. Transcription: Medieval WOMEN IN THEIR OWN WORDS Medieval women's voices evoke a world in which they lived active and varied lives. Their testimonies speak of diverse experiences, revealing female impact and influence across private, public and spiritual realms, and bringing alive experiences that still resonate today. This exhibition focuses on Europe from roughly 1100 to 1500, a period in which there was strong cultural interconnection across the continent. While most medieval sources from the period were written by and about men, women's surviving testimonies offer remarkable insight into their contributions to medieval social and economic life, culture and politics, their skilful management of households and convents, and the vibrancy of female religious culture. This is the story of medieval women, told in their own words. Interactive display. A graphic representation of a person holding both hands up with the following text: Your result You are slightly suspected of witchcraft. Heinrich Kramer demands that you publicly swear that you have never practised witchcraft nor ever will. But watch your step: if you are suspected a second time the sentence will not be so lenient... A stone statue of a medieval woman with eyes being the only facial feature shown.

Biggest achievement of the day. Been a long time since I've done one one of these. Wasn't too shabby...
