Guess who has two thumbs and is speaking at (and attending) their first conference. 👍 This guy 👍! If you’re at all interested in ghost stories, coastal erosion, lichen, tombstones etc etc then come along to the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment conference in Galway this August!

We strongly endorse this call from @slowwaysuk.bsky.social to introduce a right to access field edges. This is a key component of the wider right to roam in Scotland, facilitating landscape connectivity and providing safe off-road passage through the countryside.
