Long shadows and beautiful sunsets on Daisy’s afternoon walk.

Heads up #Wales that was a great Welsh performance against formidable opponents and some questionable decisions. Improving match by match and that was an entertaining encounter. #Cymru

Just WOW #Cymru !!!

Daisy and Kuma have a new theme tune to go with their book series… #TheAdventuresofKumakawa youtu.be/qFGYI-W9ex8

So I might be in the class room today, but that doesn’t mean we cannot learn through 3-D appreciation of specimens to complement the 2-D onscreen presentation and enhance our understanding of the subject being taught. #AdvancedAnatomy #neurodivergent #dyslexia @one-cardiffuni.bsky.social

Not all learning happens in the lecture theatre. Taking my second year Cardiff University School of Biosciences students out on a reptile and amphibian survey at beautiful Parcslip Nature Reserve #Adder #Viperaberus #toad #Bufobufo @cardiffunilib.bsky.social

Terribly saddened to hear that Jane Goodall has passed away. What a wonderful human being she was, and worked relentlessly for the wildlife she loved until her dying breath. #janegoodall

When the steaks are high, there is only one man to call on: the absolute unit that is Shane Rangi. This man has been like a brother to me over the weekend, and we ate together and shared stories every night. Thank you Shane, you made my convention. #GeneralOtmin #Hajo #MûmakilMahûd #WitchKing

I simply love hosting @TJThyne He is funny, kind, and always gives a great interview. The man even plugged #BecomingDrJones , without request I should add, even taking the book on stage. An absolute legend! #Angel #Bones #GreysAnatomy #Kingofthelab @walescomiccon.bsky.social

It’s been a massive weekend of hosting for Wales Comic Con. I have seen lots of old friends, made some new ones and interviewed some legends along the way. #JenniferBeals #TheLWord #Flashdance #TheBookofBobaFett (Photo credit: Christopher Beckers)

Rambling on in the rain, with Daisy and Helen #Devon

Enjoying a little break with Helen and Daisy on the south Devon coast.

The rain did not stop me visiting some old friends today. Most notably Mr Kuma and Sir Terry Walton at his alotment. Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge and produce. Always wonderful to see you!

So delighted with this review of #BecomingDrJones on Instagram. How lovely that people take the time to write reviews after reading books. #trulyhumbled #thankyou @hachetteuk.bsky.social @headlinebooks.bsky.social #books

So looking forward to speaking at the wonderful #BetweentheTrees Festival tomorrow with some fun stories from my career in academia, television and now as an author. I’ll also be stopping back to answer your questions and sign copies of #BecomingDrJones betweenthetrees.co.uk/cy/between-t...

Devestated to hear that Ozzy has passaged away. I only spent a few hours with him in the early nineties, but he was a beautiful human being - generous and kind. Thank you for the theme tune to my 20’s. RIP Prince of Darkness x #RIPOzzy #RIPOzzyOsbourne

I wanted to give a big shout out to my friends at Trattoria da Chef Enrico. Simply my favourite place to eat in Florence, sensational. Thank you guys! #TrattoriadaChefEnrico

Florence really does have art for everyone. I think some of my friends will particularly appreciate this street art! #TMNT

I've had the privilege of interviewing many wonderful people in my time as a BBC Presenter, but few as emotional as interviewing Veteran Angus Maxwell at the Royal Welsh Show ground during a #spitfire flyover with Telesgop. #VEDay2025 #VEDay80 #veday80thanniversary

Today is all about Tom and George’s Al fresco dining experience. 🥬🐢 🐢

Saddened to hear that Pope Francis has died. A good man who spoke his mind.

Some beautiful colours in the garden today #Spring #Tulips

Loved talking all things Dire wolf today on TRTworld ROUNDTABLE with Helen Pilcher and hosted by Enda Brady, exploring how the technology that brought about Khaleesi, Remus and Romulus could be used to save some of the most endangered species on earth.

I am so proud of my mum. Today, eight of her Ukrainian-themed Izzy dolls are being delivered to a Ukrainian orphanage by Welsh firefighters, who are donating the fire engine they are travelling in. 🇺🇦 🚒 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #Izzydoll #knitting #Wales #Ukraine @cardiffunilib.bsky.social

Thank you Pugh’s Garden Centre for your continued support. Great to see my autobiography, #BecomingDrJones , next to Sir David’s 🦒 🦓 🐍 🐢

Called over to see my mum and she is busy making Izzy dolls. How beautiful are these? She is massively talented. 🧶 #knitting
