Really disappointed in @AerLingus Delayed flying to Dublin so we missed our connection to NYC. We were put on a plane to Philly so had to make our own way to NY with two small children. They can't even grace us with a response to our claim for costs incurred due to their mistakes

Well, I'll never look at my porridge (or my pulp) the same way again! 🤣

She's kept me busy for 4 years and I think that's likely to continue. Looking forward to season 2! #GentlemanJack2 #AnneListerDiaries

Here at Wakefield we hold some very special (& rather old) documents from the 12th c. 📜This is an Inspeximus, by Henry de Lacy, confirming a 1194 charter (WMT/PO/1/185). When we retrieve them for a visitor, we all have to take a moment & have a look! #BehindTheScenes

#introducingconservators Deborah has #conservationcats ! Q3: Do you have a pet and who/what is it? A3: We have ginger/white brothers McGregor Ozymandias and Reuben Ptolemy. They have a love/hate relationship with each other. The scourge of local mice, voles and occasional birds.

Richard Veale gave them to me. He had taken a smallish standard pair of tweezers, sanded down the inner grips and bent the end just enough so that you avoided digging into the documents as you work. I have bought and own numerous tweezers, but always return to them.
