One of the things I'm most proud of! I founded the Pathway in 2010, designed & inspired by my lived experiences as a mature student, it has progressed over 80 non-traditional students onto degrees @cuhistarchrel.bsky.social - largely thanks to inspiring co-ordinator @webstermedieval.bsky.social ✊️

Inspired by Adrian Henri's poem 'I want to paint' the words and image here are my own.
Offered for #ImageAndVerse
(And safe in the knowledge that @hullsaddler.bsky.social will give me a gentle smile and nod of the head).

Hand drawn map of the churches and estates held by Regenbald of Cirencester.
"A thing of beauty is a joy forever". In this case, inspired by finding one of the maps from a handout I was given as an undergrad in Simon Keynes' Normans class. Such beautiful maps.

Submitted a chapter yesterday on Thomas Becket between God and King. A bit late and a bit long, but enjoyed writing this one. #medievalsky #medieval

Hi Vicky, we've also had an enhanced retirement scheme here at Cardiff. I'm not sure if it's still open, but it was running earlier in the year.

Reading a historian's verdict on a medieval letter in which the author "spoiled a good argument by constant and ingenious over-straining of his case".

Thank you! A mix of things for me, but happily some of them involve tea or coffee with good people. Good luck with the meetings!

[sends hug] You can, but you should also find time for yourself if you need to. (Note to self: follow own advice).
