Ok so I've got a lot of new academic followers and I need to warn you that my feed is about 15% academic stuff and 85% dogs, cats and bread making. I also like to see what people are knitting/crocheting. So basically I like knowing other academics but mostly for the non-academic stuff you post!

Wife: Look would you PLEASE just come to bed! You can read your book rather than listen to our audiobook! Just come to bed for the love of god I'm exhausted 😂

Me: 📖 😏

I agree. It's one of the reasons I found it so hard to leave Twitter (although I did, eventually).

I have had the privilege of spending 15 years with my best friend and soulmate, and today is our 14th wedding anniversary ❤️ We have had a very happy afternoon celebrating it with a bike ride in a local deer park.

That looks super, especially against your hair!

That's an astonishing amount of hours - twice what I work in a week without adding study as well!

Today Agatha has taken possession of the largest bed in the house, because she's worth it

That's wonderful, thank you so much! 😊

I would 100% do the same with the frozen ones, I hate grating potatoes!

Finished, just in time for Halloween 😀🎃

Oh wow, that looks amazing. Do you have the recipe?

Just been shopping for Halloween tat which makes me very happy 🎃

(As an aside, people are OBSESSED with scent. Even in an FFP3 mask most shops and their scented candles were overpowering!)

So close! Is this the last of the workmen?

They have done this pretty much all evening and it's a joy to see. We were so hoping that she'd get on with Charlie because he's desperate to have a friend to play with but Simeon is an old boy now and cannot be doing with being pounced upon at random!

Big day for Agatha Everywhere. Lots of playing, letting Simeon 🐈‍⬛ and Reuben 🐕‍🦺 get within sniffing distance without grumbling, and best of all learning to play with Charlie* 🐈‍⬛🥰 They have a... unique style, but it works for them! 😅

*Charlie has hydrencephaly whereas Agatha has cerebellar hyperplasia.

Agatha has arrived! It's been a busy first day for her playing with lots of new toys and being slowly introduced to our other animals. She is so tiny and an absolute delight! 😍
