I'm looking forward to speaking as part of A Decade of Dangerous Women tomorrow. I might even take my Dangerous Women mug along with me.
I am very much looking forward to seeing this.
Well, this looks fabulous…
Thank you
That’s very kind; thank you! It’s about 30 years ago since I last did ‘art’ of any kind.
And it’s finished. There are now many, many things I need to practise but I’m pretty pleased with this as a first go.
Adding some further detail. Lesson of the day: need to practise fine lines with a steady hand.
That’s the definition in my dictionary
I believe they’ll call it ‘benchmarking’
That’s very kind!
Thank you! Haven’t done ‘art’ for getting on for 30 years 😱 I’m so bad at it but it’s lots of fun!
The letter develops
Trying my hand at something new. Not to be perfect at it but to enjoy learning and experiencing.
📖Join us on Tue 24 Feb for the next CMRS Seminar by our very own Louise Gardiner:
'Royal Correspondence in Late Fourteenth-Century England: Exploring the ‘Royal Letter Book’ (Edinburgh University Library Ms. 183)'
5:15, Centre for Research Collections (6th floor, Edinburgh University main Library)
¡Enhorabuena!
Excellent and empoweringe educacioun will nevir be "efficient" yn the waye that a businesse doth stryve to be "efficient." It ys the heighte of knavery to use one standarde to measure everye human activitye. Businesses are ther to make profits. Educacioun ys ther to make the future.
Yes! It’s also having the time to do it rather than skimming so many things. I’ve been really grateful for this today.
I have the luxury of sitting and reading Wyntoun today. I’m noticing his seeming preoccupation with heresy in ways that haven’t caught my attention before. So lovely to have the time to notice new things when re-reading.
Our conference #cfp is now live! This year's conference, "Embodied Histories: Body, Mind and Experience" will take place on 17th July 2026 at University of Birmingham!
Keep on reading to find out more...(1/9)
This is my weekend mum-taxi listening. Very much looking forward to it!
Well, this was a lovely thing to receive on a dreich day
I’ve made a bundt cake for tomorrow’s Middle English Reading Group. I’m sure Sir Gawain would approve
I would love to listen via the online link, but I appear not to be able to message you currently.
Thank you so much for inviting me & for all the wonderful conversations afterwards @kateai.bsky.social & @cmrsedinburgh.bsky.social ✨
This sounds amazing!
Huge thanks to @hdohertyharrison.bsky.social who gave a great paper on the ‘Histories and Futures of Judas, c.100-c.1500’ to kick off semester 2’s research seminars @cmrsedinburgh.bsky.social
I remain in a state of blissful ignorance. Inadvertently catching the last 10 minutes of the Celebrity one a few weeks back did nothing to make me want to see more.

Congratulations!
Amazing!
