The UK Gov Camp logo, which look like a fireball heading right. The top half is blue and rest is red. In the middle is a white line that looks like the river Thames.

UKGovCamp 2026 ( #ukgc26 ) will be in #Birmingham on Saturday 17 January 2026.

We need a venue:
1️⃣ for 250 people,
2️⃣ 8 breakout rooms,
3️⃣ wheelchair accessible.

@imhuyorks.bsky.social is leading the search.

Please share and reply with ideas 🙂

I am at the using a VPN to change my IP to another UK city to book a COVID jab because boots' shitty infrastructure mistook my scrolling through days for appointments as a DDOS attack stage of the pandemic

do not ask me what I want to drink at a party - it will always be a can of Rubicon (lychee or mango) and you will not have it

I will hate them for you x

My career. Also, friends 🤗

Also, I am sure the Princess of Wales means very well, but I suspect her employment obligations are at best part-time and that she has a fleet of staff to support with childcare. The balancing act of modern life is a huge PITA and parenting is tough - solve the problem through supporting parents

campaigning to have claudia winkleman's hair grade 2 listed, but as a service

A rather handsome dummy with brown beard and long hair sitting in bed with a mug of tea, a book, and a computer monotor

A very aspirational display in the window of a local charity shop

Reminding people that the pandemic was and still is a mass disabling event, but as a service.

yeah it's a lot - production value on the jingle is 👌

happy to have helped* 👍😉

saying you look like you've just stepped out of a salon, but as a service

Our report on transforming public services for a modern Wales launches this Friday! 🙌

But now the FAFO pendulum is coming around, with Amazon's $2.5B dark pattern settlement and #a11y lawsuits galore.

ye old pube 😔

I remember Tilly Norwood when she was an AI trainee barista

And there seems to be very few barriers to entry. The ones for therapy accreditation and supervision are not perfect. But, like, they exist 🤷

F me - hope we are reaching 'peak UX coach' soon. It's a lot to ask of a person to have helpful point of view on you as therapist or workplace entity, never mind both.

my 3 year old likes pickled eggs - what does this mean?

But I really do

Pic please

I think so! There was a lot of searching and soul-searching as I found they were hard to find or soul-crushingly expensive. Then a couple popped up for cheap! Not sure how long the backlight will last - this model was top of the range in 2010, but I'll enjoy the ride 😆
