You know it’s Christmas food shopping when you see a fist fight over some sprouts and gravy

Amazing day graduating at the University of Salford with my parents in the audience. My doctorate helped keep me vaguely sane during the pandemic, so I am over the moon to get to today, and to have added to the history of the home front and emergency preparedness

@oliaworth96.bsky.social happy birthday!!!!!

Queer BlueSky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now? I was 15 at school, and it went round the school in under a week. 16 when I told family. I'm 32 now, for 3 more days at least. All went well. Can't say that 'coming out' ever stops though.

Hyacinth, Richard, Onslow, and Elizabeth are now all reunited. Sharing my favourite scene where you can see how much the cast absolutely adored filming the show.

Let’s see you at 21 (seem to mainly have uniform photos)

Slightly diminish a band: Frankie goes to Accrington

Been busy on my day off. Anzac caramel slices (50 of them) to last me the next week or so

Shouted at Michelle Obama and her security detail to hold the handrail when going down the stairs. They did

It’s taken nearly 6 years, but I’ve today submitted my thesis ready for my viva. It’s been amazing to explore the history of emergency management through its wartime foundations.

Got bored, baked food. Homemade millionaire’s shortbread, should keep me going for a while

Tried an Aussie recipe today. Ginger caramel slices - gingernut biscuits, butter, condensed milk, light brown sugar, ground ginger. They taste amazing!!

Feeling better for a haircut and shave

In light of Trump’s latest catastrophe, here’s a musical reinterpretation of the Star Spangled Banner by the brilliant Bill Bailey youtu.be/_dVFknALySA?...

This week's read. It has been on my list for months

5 years of blood, sweat, tears and love has gone into this document. To think it’s nearing completion now is a strange one. I hope I have represented the men and women of casualty services and the wartime EMS well with this work.

Got bored, made a blackberry sponge

It is amazing how simple things can boost the mood. Having my professional perspective valued and listened to is exceptionally validating, and makes a hard few weeks feel worth it.

Day one of registering for the Community Emergency Medicine Conference mailing list garnered 130 sign-ups! Don’t miss out on the chance to hear about tickets first - docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Community Emergency Medicine is an emerging method of delivering the full complement of EM care in the community - “taking the emergency department to the patient”. I will use this account to highlight the discipline as a whole with a focus on our model in north east London.

Homemade banana bread created. Tastes epic

This is good but as all you who have read @eomproject.bsky.social know the real way the Federation economy works is- *I AM DROWNED OUT BY AGE OF AQUARIUS BY THE FIFTH DIMENSION*

This medicine cabinet c.1870 contains Spanish bark, Turkey rhubarb, Ipecacuanha, Dr James's Powders and much more. Many of the bottles still contain powders and have labels from pharmacists in Bridgnorth, Liverpool, London, Dumfries and Wolverhampton. #histmed

Is this is a niche opp for a return of Fire Insurance Marks? 'For most of the 18th century, each insurance company maintained its own fire brigade, which extinguished fires in those buildings insured by the company and, in exchange for a fee to be paid later, in buildings insured by other companies'

First on-call week of 2025, this week could be a long one

Loving being home, and realising how many books I have to put on shelves

Draft 3 of my thesis submitted on Christmas Eve! Good use of working today, and hopefully 97313 words of quality and not dross

In other news though...

Working the 23rd and 24th December this year for the first time in a while. Good days to catch up on paperwork, but feel they're going to drag somewhat.
