#TheArchers George - you’re not supposed to drive….

@onambridge.bsky.social Hope Lucy’s birthday week celebrations are going well and you had a fab meet-up today.

BBCR4 #DeadRingers this evening has an interesting sketch on algae: Operation Epic Fungi

I want to go to Ambridge for some of that rain…. #TheArchers

Don't forget to submit a proposal for @uksg.bsky.social 2027! The conference is in Glasgow from 5-7 April. We love proposals that give us something to take back to our day jobs, whether that's a hot tip on managing up or practical suggestions for setting AI policy. www.uksg.org/news/2026/05...

Great advice from Kate to Brad! #TheArchers

There are actually three by-elections today…. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

So a fair bit of repeat content (albeit with two different cast groups) and other content that will be different every night. Plus other show elements that I haven’t mentioned. Personally, I really enjoyed it. 2/2 #TheArchers #ArchersLive

Currently waiting for husband to finish looking at stuff in B&Q. At least in clothes shops there’s usually a seat for bored spouses to wait in.

Brian has been stepfather to Adam for about 50 years - but seems to have forgotten this. Jenny would have bashed their heads together before it reached this stage…. #TheArchers

Pip’s ambition for her wedding day is for “Rosie to have the best day ever”. What does that mean for her marriage? #TheArchers

I think we can predict that…. #TheArchers

@onambridge.bsky.social This week’s sketch made me laugh so much I needed my asthma inhaler #TheArchers

🌾 It's here, Ambridge Research Fellows, and there are two conferences to announce. 2027: online at the (imagined) University of Felpersham, Sat 20 and Sun 21 March 2027. Tickets now: buytickets.at/academicarch... 🧵

I don’t have a radical vegan preaching at me - rather a radical carnivore who has just lectured me on why red meat is good for us and it is only processed meat / preserved meat with nitrates that is bad for us. I did mention heart health and arteries but apparently lots of exercise is the answer…

Yes, but Eddie and Will were irritating and offputting when George was trying to do a serious video short with Ed in choosing stock for the show. #TheArchers

The last thing an acting school head wants after a disappointing (possibly surprising) Ofsted report is Natasha Archer bending their ear about how suitable it will be for her children. Full marks for continuity in the script with Tom noting that Pat will be unhappy if they go private #TheArchers

The Fall of the House of Aldridge, as prophesied in 'Flapjacks and Feudalism' has begun #TheArchers

“John died in 2014. He wanted to be buried in Ambridge, so Carol returned once more. Soon after, she moved back to the village”. So Carol has rented Glebe Cottage for about a decade. Many people choosing new accom in their 80s might consider its suitability if their mobility decreases #TheArchers

How many years has Carol rented her cottage from Jill? She speaks about “my home” as though she’s spent a lifetime there. #TheArchers

@onambridge.bsky.social Thst was a fantastic Zoom chat - the hour just sped by. Thanks so much

@onambridge.bsky.social Got my popcorn ready (and the sound muted) for the Patreon call with Jazzer!!

George, now is not the time for Amber to give up her job! She will get maternity pay from the farm stores which freelancing social media content will not provide. #TheArchers

Academic Archers alumni and Research Fellows, we now have a home on LinkedIn. University of Felpersham have joined social media and can be found www.linkedin.com/company/univ... #TheArchers

Shout out to our speakers - they have been keeping to time and/or finishing early this year! #AcademicArchers #TheArchers

Jeremy Howe speaking about humbugs in the car glove box during the magical realism Christmas Carol week last year. I never noticed at the time but what a brilliant “easter egg”. #AcademicArchers #TheArchers

Now a recording between Jeremy How (who sadly could not be here) and Cara Courage to celebrate this year’s tenth and seventy fifth anniversaries #AcademicArchers #TheArchers

#AcademicArchers Lilian and Keri Davies!!!

If you’re intrigued by the #AcademicArchers Conference, why not follow @academicarchers.bsky.social We celebrate #TheArchers through conversation, community, and fun. The values are: Curiosity, Joyfulness and Generosity. See also www.academicarchers.net

The Conference podium and sofas. #AcademicArchers #TheArchers

What else could we have at the morning tea break but flapjack! #AcademicArchers 2026. #TheArchers

#AcademicArchers papers between the tea break and lunch. #TheArchers

Sitting close to Helen’s wonderful cardigan and a photo of it has just come up on screen…. #AcademicArchers #TheArchers

Academic Archers conference programme - first session #AcademicArchers #TheArchers @academicarchers.bsky.social

Wearing my badger socks this morning at the tenth #AcademicArchers conference. #TheArchers @thecidershedpod.bsky.social

The Goldilocks porridge at #AcademicArchers this morning #TheArchers

Post-lunch cup of tea in my husband’s mug before setting off to the #AcademicArchers conference. #TheArchers

Too much excitement in one day! In addition to attending the @academicarchers.bsky.social conference this weekend, Henry Normal replied to my comment on FB about his library-themed cardigans!

Ben is the best of the Brookfield bunch #TheArchers

Pip bottled out of leaving Brookfield to go abroad (was it also South America?) so maybe Ruth thought Josh would too? Josh is 28!! Ruth is acting as though he was a 16yo leaving home. #TheArchers

#TheArchers For those of us who feel that Pip is not worthy of Stella, could Anna Tregorran tempt her away? Though actually I’d rather Pip left and Stella stayed…

Klaxon alert!!! “If you had children…” is one of the worst phrases you can say to anyone (whether or not they lie childlessness is voluntary or not)! Brian - I call that the Andrea Leadsom argument. Just don’t!! #TheArchers

Surely The Bull must sell more interesting alcohol-free drinks (mocktails, J20, Fevertree etc) than bitter lemon? Bitter lemon was one of the few alcohol free soft drinks around 40 years ago. Far more interesting options now. #TheArchers

50-40 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏉🇫🇷🏆

Searched on “Ranganathan” to remind myself of the #FiveLawsOfLibraryScience . Perhaps predictably the search results focused on a popular comedian. Here’s the info I was after: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_la...

Free day place for a student at the theology libraries conference. If you want it I thunk it's there for the taking (sudden readvertisement 20 days before conference suggests lack of applications...)

#WorldBookDay My bookish highlights last month included my first visit to #PersephoneBooks in Bath and attending the launch of #TheKillingTime at @kibworthbooks.bsky.social @ellygriffiths.bsky.social

On #WorldBookDay I want to thank Leicestershire Libraries for their services including BorrowBox which I use extensively. May Leicestershire Council grant you the funding you deserve. #LeicestershireLibraries

Been a while since I posted a #traintweet in a professional context. En route to the Library of Birmingham on #WorldBookDay for the Midlands #CilipFest event
