Glorious swim in the sunshine this lunch time at Park Road Lido in Haringey. Pity it is closed at prime time given the sunk costs of keeping this running.

This is great, reposting so I can find later.

Congrats to the new Dr Santiago Martinez Balvanera @ucl-pnl.bsky.social - we even managed a drink outside to end the week! Was lovely to bump into @alex-rogers.bsky.social - a longer chat is needed next time you are around.

Would love to hear about some of the themes for “spaces for teaching and learning”. Currently noodling on teaching requirements for 2035. Is this being written up?

Thanks @genmon.fyi for being so generous with your time today talking about poem.town with @casaucl.bsky.social students - wise words as always and lovely to end with the mini crit of their live projects.
