Agree. This to me explains the drop in female PP attendance more than anything. They used to go to school because of social FOMO. It is now more important to have an online presence.

I’ve never been given an award but I know I’ve felt humbled when people have said I’ve made a difference.

I remember the first vinyl album. I don’t remember the first or last CD. This of course is a loud and proud declaration of old age.

Jim is an amazing optimist which is one of the many reasons I talk to him. I get why you are Stuart.

I hope you are right.

The question is, are we worried that’s where we are returning? I’ll be getting my coat if we are.

I’ve been triggered. It’s all coming back. That actually happened down the Maths corridor. Has anyone ever tried to do a quadratic equation with 4 people? How is it even possible even if you thought it was a good idea?

If everyone knew what librarians knew about information handling (regardless of medium) the world would be in a better place.

Inspector ‘I’m not seeing any group work’ Me ‘you won’t’

🤣🤣.

Thanks Jim. I wonder if I’ve become less brave with age.

And who knew all you had to do was scan the bar code!

I don’t have many followers on here so please share if you have more. Connect Ed is free CPD provided by our partnership (TCCT and Beckfoot Trust). Everyone deserves access to great CPD. This is our small contribution to the sector that we care so deeply about.

I love talking to taxi drivers. Uber drivers often have a right life story to tell.

I’ll resist saying, ‘surely that’s not history’ like my Dad used to say about JFK/Vietnam etc

Agree. I also think as adults we need training on intentionally listening. I don’t think any of us listen well enough. We are often too distracted.

Great feedback from Beckfoot Oakbank where I was today. Huge shout out to our wonderful @nickisullivan.bsky.social who makes CPD dreams come true.

Love this! Team, aspiration, positive relationships!

I could be very easily be guilty of 2). When you get to my age there is very little new under the sun! I tend to keep my thoughts to myself though.

Can’t wait to read the contribution from our professional friend Jon Gilbert. No doubt it’ll be a case of shouting, ‘yes and this’ all the way through!
