Delighted to receive this award! Thanks to the panel and @acdsociety.bsky.social
Among everything else, I forgot to congratulate @anniechapman.bsky.social for winning the Arthur Conan Doyle society's award for the year's best academic work on Doyle, for her article on Doyle, medical authority, and *The Idler*. I was on the panel and it was a very tough competition.

So much to love about London Tide. The staging and particularly the lighting design were brilliant. What they chose to include/exclude worked well. That said if you don’t like PJ Harvey you might struggle with it!

Said hello to the Gloucester Candlestick yesterday. Somehow it’s about 11 years since I was thinking about it during my MA. I loved the freedom to think that course afforded me. Happy times

I remember how excited I was by all the options as an undergrad delivered by so many experts, and I wonder what options will be left for my history-loving teen when he gets to that stage

Very happy to see the summary of my article ‘Authority and Medical Expertise: Arthur Conan Doyle in The Idler’ is up on the Medical Humanities blog today: blogs.bmj.com/medical-huma... I was lucky to have the article published online first in May but it’s now part of the December issue

Gutted today as one of my wonderful colleagues worked her last day with us. If you haven’t already got yourself a collaborator/ sounding-board/ co-conspirator/ team-teacher who is a librarian, you should absolutely make that your priority. Librarians make the best colleagues. And friends

This was a fabulous event! Beautiful singing and fascinating context for the carols. Made my Monday a bit less Monday
Looking forward to introducing another Victorian secularist song as part of the this evening's @c19qmul.bsky.social Carols in Context event. Alongside more familiar pieces, we'll be singing 'Sympathy.' Two verses received Gladstone's own tick of approval in his copy held at @gladlib.bsky.social

Took some of our PGRs on a writing retreat on a train today! It was the best. We went to Lancaster and met up with PGRs from the Glasgow campus who did a train retreat too. Can’t claim credit for the idea but it was such a lovely day and I would 100% recommend doing writing retreats on a train!
