Last weekend explored the Canary Wharf Art Trail with the family, pure inspiration! From the lush Roof Gardens to immersive installations, it’s a stunning blend of nature, architecture & creativity. A perfect Sunday stroll

Boat at sunrise, hockey salutes, splash park mayhem, and river dancing. Olivia’s final day at primary school was epic. Blamed the tears on hayfever, but let’s be real...
Year 6, you nailed it. Here's to secondary school and brighter adventures ahead!

DominicJonesUK @dominicjonesuk.bsky.social · Jul 22

Fantastic feature on BBC South Today this evening highlighting incredible work by the University of Portsmouth and @maryrosemuseum.bsky.social team! Successfully recovered and digitised archival footage from over 40 years ago, preserving pivotal moments in maritime history for generations to come.
