I've not had much time to spend with these two for a few weeks so I'm making the most of today before I head off to my 2nd conference in 2 weeks! 🐔🥰🐔 They have marked the occasion with some excellent posing for the camera... #RescueHens #ExBatteryHens #HenRetirement @bhwt.bsky.social

the year is 2030. a doctor solemnly informs you that you have plastic in your testicles bc millions of people persuaded by celebrity marketing bought synthetic pubic hairs that were eventually consumed by fish that you ate

I may have spent much of today working, but it involved fashion, maps and SDG's, so it's all good! Did I create individual maps to break down each supply chain stage? Yes, of course I did! 😆 #LecturerLife #FashionSupplyChain #SDGs #SustainableDevelopmentGoals #Cartophile #ILoveMaps 😅

I bet Trump is tamping today.

Honouring Jane Goodall this evening with a cocktail from my #FreeTheTipple book*. We lost not just a great mind but a woman with determination & compassion. Thank you for everything you've done for conservation, animals & inspiring so many young girls! *Each cocktail is.dedidated to iconic women ✊️

Reasons to not use Ticketmaster. I successfully purchased my Tame Impala tickets 10 mins ago from the venue site. TM still has me in a queue with 7k people in front of me, and the venue site has no queue now.

The most perfect Sunday. A blissful afternoon spent listening to @mchshe.bsky.social* & @laurenlaverne.bsky.social #DesertIslandDiscs Plus lots of 🌞, 🌻 & 🧶 Just wonderful 🫶 *We need to protect this man at all costs! #NationalTreasure www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... #Crochet #CraftSky #WelshHero

Yes!!! My brother used to have several "poodys" each day when he was a teenager. Me and my cousin used to joke it's because he was eating too many "poody" eggs. Don't ask what that means though 😂 Welsh word from Race Across the World added to OED - BBC News share.google/s4nq4fj0DuKI...

I had such a wonderful start & end to the work day: 🏋️‍♀️ A gym session & sunrise swim 🍃 Finished with a 3 mile wander through the woods I wish I hadn't checked the news in between, because, WOW, it's been quite the day for the mad (🍊) toddler 🤯 Go touch some grass everyone - it helps 🌱

Got to make the most of the perks of working from home on a gorgeous sunny day! 🌞🌻😎 And a wifi booster in the campervan that is stronger than the home wifi, even when in the house! 🤷‍♀️ #WFH #SunshineMakesEverythingBetter

Always following me. Always inquisitive. 🐔🥰🐔 Perfect Sunday: A 4 mile early morning walk following by crocheting in the glorious sunshine. Soundtracked by BBC 6Music since 8am. #RescueHens #ExBatteryHens #HenRetirement #Sunday #WeekendVibes

Well, I wasn't expecting to find that this morning. Size on that courgette/marrow!!👀 Lots of little ones are still growing too...it's like a jungle in the polytunnel! And after many years of trying, I got my first aubergine, too!! 🙌 #GrowYourOwn #GardenSky #Polytunnel

Utterly. Gutted. Not this time, Radiohead, but one day.

There used to be a lido there until they pulled it down for a playground. I guess nature prevails... #SunsetWalk #MeTime

🌻🌻🌻 Believe it, or not, there's a 9mt long polytunnel and chicken run amongst all those sunflowers 👀 They've never grown this huge before! At least 15ft high and more flower heads eaxh day! 🤯 #Sunflowers #GardenSky #Garden #MyHappyPlace

This has just made it real... 13 months left of the PhD! 👀

Can I just put it on record how much I hate #TimesNewRoman. Especially after editing 50k characters of it, on a macro template with a mysteriously disabled spell/grammar checker. Oh, how I miss you #CenturyGothic with your properly curved a's and wide characters. #FontNerd #TypographyNerd

Hello @neunion.bsky.social @neucymru.bsky.social I wonder could you please share this with your networks? It will help my research and to develop a free teaching resource pack to reduce teacher workload and the need for additional CPD. Diolch yn fawr / Thank you very much!

Exciting & busy autumn ahead: PhD Collaborative & Critical Pedagogical Presentations 💡Yale University - October 💡iCERi Conference - November Lecturing at Bath Spa Uni 🧠Critical Design Thinking 👕Fashion Design + the day job 👀 Definitely ready to enjoy my last week off in the van before the chaos!

📢 PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS NEEDED! 📢 As part of my PhD I'd like feedback from primary school teachers about fast-fashion education. It only takes a few minutes to complete - the consent process has also been updated to make it easier. The survey can be found here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I've just received my first peer review feedback for a journal paper (Environmental Science & Sustainable Development) and I'm thrilled it only has very minor recommendations! It was an absolute pleasure and validating to read this feedback. Just the boost I needed!! Happy Friday all! 🎉 #PhD

I am incredibly excited to be presenting my #PhD research at @yale.edu during October! I will explore: 💡 #CriticalPedagogy to dismantle colonial #FastFashion 💡 #Practivism (practical activism) in primary art and design #education More info 👇 www.sustainablefashionconsumption.org/events-1/sym...

Italian regulator hits Shein with 1 million euro greenwashing fine... "AGCM said the environmental sustainability and social responsibility messages on Shein's website "were sometimes vague, generic, and/or overly emphatic, and in other cases omitted and misleading" www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

This is shocking (and I’m so rarely shocked by anything fashion does these days). We are literally drowning ourselves in fast fashion. I would place money on these parcels creating a fire risk in people’s homes.

Life. Goal. Made. I got to see Air play last night at #WildernessFestival 🫶😭🫶 Was totally worth the overnight 15hr breakdown in a Tesco car park in Gloucester. 😅 What a way to start my 3 weeks of annual leave! 🙌 Merci @airfrenchband.bsky.social (And thank you RAC)

Really gutted to find out I did not just come up with the name #WaxyLemon, but salute whoever did. 🫶 Catchy name for a man bag brand too...🤔 But joking aside, I really hope that guy is ok and Tiny Tom get's put back where he belongs.

Found myself really intrigued by people who had high power corporate jobs in fashion and now push for a sustainable fashion industry. So I interviewed some of them... www.forbes.com/sites/olivia...

#GlastonHendy was blast!! 🤩 Pulp, Supergrass, Neil Young, and more highlights! 💃🎪 Featuring bubbles, secondhand sequins, flower crowns, valerian catnaps in the "tent" and we even had a fence jumper! Now chilling with @cerysmatthews.bsky.social on 6Music 👌 #Glastonbury #GardenGlasto
