Every time I hear an ambulance, I think of this quote from Blood Read (Gordon and Hollinger 1997): ‘As the land empties, cities fill up-to provide enormous blood banks for those who seek blood. No wonder ambulances wail like banshees.’ Well yes, I wrote my PhD on #vampires

Just caught up with the final episode of #ChefsTable Noodles, featuring Nite Yun. I missed watching Chef’s Table - one of my favourite foodie programmes, every episode is so beautifully done. It’s much more than food - it’s people’s stories. Thank you, David Gelb!

Over the last few weeks, I have done important training. First, I had an opportunity to do Mental Health First Aid training with @mhfaengland.bsky.social and now I’m a certified MHFAider. Such an intense but valuable course, to be able to support others. Grateful for the tools I was given. 1/2

As the conference season has ended for me, I reflect on the events I attended this past academic year (24-25). In Nov 2024, I attended THE Campus+ Live and it was a great event. I really enjoyed listening to many HE leaders walking about sustainable future for the sector #conferencing 1/4
