Wow wow WOW! Beautiful northern lights over Bathford tonight 😍 #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis #BathUK

Artists and astronomy experts come together to explore our enduring fascination with the cosmos

Whilst at primary school we went over to visit the dry dock and see the Matthew being built. I have this memory of them steaming planks to bend them into shape. We also visited the SS Great Britain at the same time.

Looking forward to showing you all much more of the amazing wildlife & landscape history in & around #Bath this year! #Somerset #nature #wildlife #ukwildlife #bathnature #bird #ukwildlife #birdphotography

This feels like very worrying and bad news for Bath - what are Labour thinking? The only reason so much of the city is protected is because of UNESCO inscription meaning more scrutiny and call ins are allowed on planning decisions made. This looks to be the sack of Bath mark 2.

A joy to finally have seen and been able to photograph a kingfisher in Bath. I’ve been trying for a few years to get a decent shot and now I have I am VERY happy. 😆 #Kingfisher #UKBIRDS #BathUK #VisitBath

Why is it that when a new book gets published it comes out in hard back first and not paperback? I would prefer it the other way around (and I’d have more space on my bookshelves for more books). That’s today’s 3am musings 🤷‍♂️🤣

I know lots of people who LOVE voice notes. I, on the other hand, do… not

Running slightly late this morning so grabbed a taxi to Bath Spa Uni. Jumped out at Main House and a guy rushed out to meet me… except it wasn’t me he was supposed to meet… I played along politely until it finally clicked that I wasn’t the guy he was waiting for… I just presumed I knew him 🫣🤷‍♂️🤣

Does anyone else really hate voice notes? Or is it just me? Please just send me a damn message or phone but not this weird in-between thing that I probably can’t listen to straight away because I work in theatre and have to be quiet most of the time… ANNNND breathe! 😮‍💨🤣🫣

The B&NES Liberal Democrat administration and the official Labour opposition together, at November’s Full Council meeting, discarded plans for a robust AI ethics policy that the BathNES Green Group proposed in its AI motion - open.substack.com/pub/bathnesg...

The growth of data centres is placing pressure on electricity networks. In some areas this is already delaying new housing. Modern data centres can consume as much power as many tens of thousands of homes, the grid cannot always support both #ukhousing www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/uk-d...

I wish companies would stop publicly advertising job roles they already know the person they want for. Stop playing games. Just give it to them and be done with it and stop wasting everybody else’s time 😉 Do you have ANY idea how long it takes to fill out a job application? Rant over 🤣🤣🤣

How many farmers were arrested for blocking roads and holding up traffic? Asking for a bunch of imprisoned pensioners who did nothing but hold up signs… 🪧

Got a minute? Labour are about to pass new planning legislation that will effect every single one of us. Make sure you have the right facts. Here’s everything you need to know about the bill in 60 seconds.

STOP BRISTOL ARTS CUTS Weds 26 November 11:30am for 12pm Bristol City Council are once again threatening to cut all cultural funding. This cannot be allowed to happen! Show up, make some noise & sign the open letter 👇 Here is full campaign information bit.ly/bristolcultu...

When you adopt the policies you once opposed, you risk becoming like the very forces you once criticised. Labour’s temporary asylum plan echoes the harsh approaches they used to stand against. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It's the last chance to halt a bill that poses a real threat to our green spaces and wildlife, says environment campaigner Danica Priest

Soooo bored of fighting this nonsense now. Bristol is set to go the same way Bath did. I really hope Bristol orgs join together this time and fight this.

Own a bit of Bath history Fancy owning a little city-centre pied-a-terre? Does buying a 900-year-plus lease on Ralph Allen's Grade 1 listed 18th-century town house grab you? This morning, in the company of Luke John Emmett, a Bath-based creative and lighting designer, we were shown around the…

If you don’t like being called a racist, maybe don’t make a career of saying things that appeal to racists, don’t create a political party that keeps attracting racist candidates, don’t fawn over racist world leaders, and don’t make a convicted racist the guest of honour at your party conference.

Go and catch this in Bristol if you can or one of their other events and talks during Black History Month.

Tonight’s Harvest Moon (supermoon). In between clouds 🌔

It seems nuts to me that we’re relying on comedians to call sh!t out at the moment because those in power left their backbones & integrity dangling somewhere off the side of the M4 during the last election. Arghhhh!

The Labour Party are bought and paid for. Lobbying, cash for access, vested interests. This is who they are. It doesn't have to be this way.

Just 13% satisfied with #Starmer as Prime Minister, with 79% dissatisfied - lower than any other recent PM. I cannot see this changing markedly, without some unforeseen external event, as Starmer does not have the wherewithal. More here www.ipsos.com/en-uk/reform...

Over the past couple of months I’ve been slowly updating my website & redesigning bits of it. There’s more to do (isn’t there always) but I think it’s now looking much sharper than it did before. If you’ve got 5 mins have a look & let me know your thoughts 💭 🙏

Had a nightmare last night for the first time in ages. Woke myself up shouting for help about 6:45am this morning. Very disconcerting. Haven’t felt particularly grounded all day just a bit floaty, weird and on edge. Prob over-tired or coming down ill with something. Don’t recommend it! 😳
