Fam! We were trying to be funny in our earlier post (we should know better)! Nice to know we're loved, though. Thanks. We’ll be back soon with new content – watch this space...

😭Sad news😭 The authorities have finally caught up with us so this will be our last post on BlueSky. It's been a blast and we love you all. Especially our BFF @merchantshallyork.org 🥰🥰 Keep up with the posting, everyone. Together you can conquer the scourge of work-based productivity...

This Mesolithic amber figurine from Denmark is conclusive proof that The Wombles were around long before the 70s.

Mosaics = zero 🙄 Hypocausts = zero 🤨 Oldest formal gardens in Britain = zero 🥱 The Royal Yacht Britannia = two stars ⭐⭐😐 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We've decided we have too much money, so THIS SATURDAY (2nd May) you can visit for just FIVE QUID and kids go free! 🤩🤩. We're even laying on music, craft stalls, refreshments and that. Oh! Oh! And there's going to be a bouncy castle!! What's not to love??! 😍🏰

How. Many. Times... 🙄

A brilliant afternoon spent at the always excellent Fishbourne @romanpalace.bsky.social with #CuratorRob Symmons Although with the constant reminder of what can never (ever) be mine.... #HypocaustGate

We endorse this post. 👇

We would like to know what was going through the mind of the person who, instead of putting a label on this box, put a label on this box saying that it needs a label... 🧐

Yesterday was International Flamingo Day, but for this little guy it may as well have been a lifetime ago. 🧑‍🍳🍴🤤 #MosaicMonday

It's a little known fact that all curators are related. Indeed, #CuratorScott and #CuratorRob are cousins. Very, very distant cousins. 🤔🧬

Imagine waking up to this every day. 😍😍 #SundayHuxley

@maryrosemuseum.bsky.social haven't posted for 12 days. We're worried they've sunk. Again. 😬

We lent the Learning Team this book and for some reason when they returned it, it was wrapped in cling film. 🤔

We're delighted to now be on the Bloomberg Connects App, allowing you to access more information on our museum, collections and history in multiple languages, as well as an audio guide of our displays. - all for free! 😀 Find out more at: www.cromwellmuseum.org/about-us/new...

Volunteer Bethany was in yesterday and made archive boxes... a LOT of archive boxes...

It’s St George’s Day! 🐉 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Seems apt to share our most popular post on bluesky. Although we have been told that the dragon in question is actually a wyvern. 😬

Do you want to see our impression of a dog?

Why isn't Margate's Crab Museum on Bluesky? We need answers. 🦀

Huxley's too old and stiff to get as far as the bluebell woods these days, so here's a pic of him when he wasn't. #SundayHuxley

Yesterday's ##archive30 was #archivestorage. We're not as neat as the big guns ( @mrcwarwick.bsky.social & @romanpalace.bsky.social ) but we try our best!

Old, messy, but ours. We're incredibly jealous.

We may be tiny but we are mighty! (And it smells like old books 🥰)

Since everyone's sharing pics of their archives ATM... We visited the mighty Archaeological Resource Centre in Northamptonshire this week and saw their amazing archives, which are overseen by Ben: a slightly underripe #CuratorRob.

We need to do a new video now it's full, but for now you'll just need to marvel over this. 🤩 bsky.app/profile/roys...

We know we're biased, but ours are better. 😎

Conference alert! It's free and it's hybrid, so you have no excuses no to be there.

The Algorithm is on to us.... 😬

We would like to apologize that our recent content has been so awesome that it's been causing BlueSky to glitch. We will return to posting an endless stream of utter rubbish immediately. Again: Sorry. 😳

Did anyone else see this message in the clouds this morning? #LookUpAtTheSkyDay

Those folk from @buarchanth.bsky.social are back today with their fancypants ground penetrating radar. They're trying to find out what's beneath our car par. We don't like to tell them they're wasting their time... Nothing interesting ever gets found under a car park, right? 👑😬

I'll be talking about Roman Baths in Britain at the Epping Forest District Museum on the 22nd April at 7pm. Tickets £7 to raise money for the museum. www.ticketsource.com/efdmuseum/ta... @theromansoc.bsky.social @romanpalace.bsky.social @durotrigesdig.bsky.social @uclarchaeology.bsky.social

We can confirm that visitors to the Palace will be able to buy "healthy cocaine" from this dealer, in our car park.

Huxley wishes everyone a fantastic Sunday. But he's still not sharing the sofa with you. 😘😘 #SundayHuxley

Today we will be mainly posting pictures of artefacts that look like sweets. 🍬🍫

... alternatively you can have my sweets that look like artefacts! 🤣 #Archaeology

Do you want some Money? Of course you do. Here's a fund that will help early career archaeologists become *actual* career archaeologists... sussexpast.co.uk/research/the...

We've only just realized that @romanfindsgroup.bsky.social are on BlueSky. Sorry to have missed this. The guilty party has been identified and thoroughly thrashed. Still worth a follow, though. 👍✅

We're hosting Erin and Will today (from @buarchanth.bsky.social). They're surveying our Formal Garden using ground penetrating radar. Can't wait to see what they discover. Probably a previously unknown hypocaust. 🤞

Look what arrived in this morning's post! We have abandoned all hope of doing any Actual Work today. 🤩

The stunning Dolphin mosaic at Fishbourne @romanpalace.bsky.social #MosaicMonday

Hope you had a great weekend. Help yourself to this Easter bunny being chased by an aardvark. #MosaicMonday

Huxley went to the Fox and Hounds and graciously accepted strokes from strangers. #SundayHuxley

Spring flowers: ✅ Medieval guild hall: ✅ Grey and chilly weather because it’s a Bank Holiday weekend in the UK: ✅ Whatever your plans, we hope you have a happy Saturday!

Today’s amazing and completely not tenuous Easter fact: The Hall is 4 years older than hot cross buns. Brother Thomas Rocliffe of St Albans Abbey began making them in 1361 and would distribute them to the poor on Good Friday.

Sometimes your working day gives you more joy than you could ever have hoped for.
