thanks to all who bought Moonlight Concessions…now in its second pressing and available at kristinhersh.com

I'm currently on the train to Chester, listening to this (trying to drown out the stag party revellers 🥴) See you later!

Some full-on fangirling behaviour from me last week when I got to see Peter Buck play in the teeny weeny Ferret club in Preston. It was a fantastic (if sweaty 🥵) experience. We just need @millsish.bsky.social to pop over to the UK for a mini-tour (minotaur?) and all would be good with the world.

This is just perfect. 🥰

I will be asking to remove 'Queer As Folklore' from the long list for the Polari Prize 2025.

Mine's a pint - 😂

Finally made it to Balfarg Henge last month. It was worth the wait. Scotland does seem to "do" archaeology well, doesn't it? #urbanprehistory

😂

It's an absolute corker! My brother has just moved to Norfolk so I'm now plotting out archaeology trips across East Anglia. 🤩

Still from the 1941 film "Love on the Dole", with the unfortunate subtitle "She's a strange lassie's arsehole".

Catastrophic subtitling on the 1941 movie "Love on the Dole".

(It should read "She's a strange lass, is our Sal"...)

Thoroughly enjoyed nodding off last night whilst listening to @theduncanmackay.bsky.social regaling me with his take on Boudica. Let's see what tonight brings.

Not exactly #urbanprehistory - maybe we need to make space for an #industrialagriculturalprehistory hashtag?

Stone of Morphie 📸 July 2025.

One of my favourite spots along the wall.

Wee Jessie Bear and I are doing some hardcore holiday planning in the 🌞 We'll be based in Angus but also visiting Fife. Very excited that I'll finally get to witness the glory of Balfarg. Any other must-do sites I should see @urbanprehistorian.bsky.social ?

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Playmobil Obelix has built a trilithon for Asterix, who is correcting him that he wanted to do a triathlon.

No! I said nice day for a TRIATHLON!

The last time I saw Marty Wilson-Piper he was on stage with @julianneregan.bsky.social & All About Eve. I always knew he was a good egg and here he proves that he also has exquisite taste in music 💙 @istevejansen.bsky.social #exitnorth #thomasfeiner #sweetbillypilgrim

Remember to take time to smell the irises 🪻

Probably one of my most-visited sites, but Castlerigg never fails to take my breath away. 📸 March 2025 #StandingStoneSunday

I was too distracted by the light bouncing off his bonce. 🫣

I've never been more pleased that I mentioned his bald spot when I appeared on Pointless. Utter twat.

I stopped buying Branston brands when they were owned by N*stle but have just discovered that that is no longer the case so - back to Branston for me! 🤩

Where is this?

One of my favourite places, I visit at least once a year. Glorious.

Feb 2017. A blustery day spent on Bute to visit Ettrick stone circle, before heading back to Glasgow to witness the glory of the Archdrude himself. #StandingStoneSunday

"He's getting an entrepreneurial kick out of it," the thick af racist woman says, as a 7yo climbs into a dumpster full of rotting shit to scavenge for plastic for a few pennies.

We need to question why the British are this poorly educated & morally debased.

We're here.

There's delicious irony in those lithic houses of the dead being part of why the Long Neolithic lives still. For these tombs are alive in our imaginations, alive in our papered tellings of history. A breathing presence in our stories of place. – Dr. K Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

Ooooh, I loves me an ammonite 😍
