My @glaucomflecken.bsky.social paediatrician stash has arrived so today it is a very good day! #adultsareterrible socks are going straight on. Signed portrait immediately behind my computer for all Teams calls too much?

This weekend I've been at New Scientist Live 2025 at the Excel Centre in London with colleagues from @mrccmm.bsky.social at the @universityofexeter.bsky.social. It's been such a great opportunity to meet with people of all ages who love science and share with them our passion for Mycology

Initial thoughts…

Wipe clean (probably) ✅
Festive ✅
Bright and fun ✅

#paedsky #pedsky #idsky #medsky off the back of infection control tearing down most of the NICU Christmas decorations & suggesting we keep our Elf On The Shelf suffocated in a plastic bag (sounds fun for the visiting siblings) hit me with your infection control-friendly Xmas day accessories to wear

This was waiting for me outside my hospital accommodation pre-night shift. Irresistible to my inner paediatrician #stormdarragh 🍁 #teamnightshift

Christmas tree update
It’s too big. Around 8 foot in fact 😂

It’s getting a hair cut

The tree I ordered might be a little bit on the large side. Can’t wait to not help my husband get it into the living room 😅

I’m having a day with the fabulous SoNAR neonatal transport team and I’m overly excited that I get to ride up front in the ambulance. I’m definitely in the right job!

Boots and Boots 2.0 say hi 👋

Like butter wouldn’t melt.

You’d never guess that he’d just tactically hacked up grass over the eldest’s school shoes. Bet she’ll be delighted in the morning when we remind her we tell her every day to PUT.HER.SHOES.AWAY (*I’ve cleaned the shoes!)

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

What is your 10/10 album?

If you see this, post a concert pic you took

Christmas cake day ✅

Now just to bake it for 3 hours and then spend another full day decorating it, probably whilst moaning the whole time about how long it’s taking. Wouldn’t have it any other way 🙃

More or less made it to the end of the week, just like this cat. Happy Friday everyone!
