I still think of this as a "new" Soundgarden album. Apparently, it's 30 years old this year! #30in26 #music

a two-tiered theatre filled with people sat down attending Derbyshire Archaeology Day at The Winding Wheel theatre in Chesterfield. Photo by me. Landscape archaeologist David Went standing on stage pointing at a screen during his presentation at Derbyshire Archaeology Day. Photo by me. A man with a beard and a flat cap sat in a theatre crowd holding a microphone during the Q&A section of a talk at Derbyshire Archaeology Day 2026 Alex Cave from Derbyshire Records Office stood on a stage at Derbyshire Archaeology Day giving a talk about her archive project. Photo by me.

A few of my photos from a fab time at Derbyshire Archaeology Day 2026 in Chesterfield. Full of fantastic talks, great archaeology chats between speakers, and the infamous Colin Merrony book stall! January 2027 seems a long way off! Maybe some sort of Summer heritage social is in order? #archaeology

Can't find any other details about it. Looks like you need to phone the library to book so I'll ask then and let you know.

I'll keep you posted. I'm meeting with the group tomorrow to chat about funding options. I'll mention it to them. They're very much of the "the more the merrier" mindset.

The local group have already got 15 homes that are willing to have their back gardens dug up, so they're off to a great start! Hopefully they'll get something going this summer if they get the funding! 🤞

A group of people sat and standing around a row of tables inside St Wilfrid's Church in Barrow-upon-Trent watching a presentation.

Had a fab but chilly day yesterday with Mathew Morris of University of Leicester Archaeological Services learning all about how to run a community test pit project. Looking forward to seeing how this project in Barrow-upon-Trent evolves!

An old Quality Street tin full of Star Wars figures and toys.

Possibly the best thing to come out of a Quality Street tin in some years!!

Found whilst rummaging in the loft at my mum's house.

Responses: Richard Long’s A Line Made By Walking (1967). Like the work of sculptor Andy Goldsworthy, Richard Long’s work immediately asks an intriguing question: which part of the work is the official segment of “art”?  Is it the very p…

I'd never heard of Richard Long before this evening, but a friend of mine introduced him to me via this work of his from the 60's. Being partial to spending time walking across the landscape, this piece of work really fascinates me!

I vowed never to rewatch Game of Thrones after the final season in 2019. I remember feeling so cheated by the ending. For some reason, we decided to rewatch it at the end of 2025. All 8 seasons, back-to-back. And you know what? The ending is fine. #TV
