If you'd like to see more of the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica that they didn't manage to show on Celebrity Race Across The World, we have a stunning holiday rental set in the hills of secondary rainforest near to the Panama border. DM me if you'd like details.

Turns out the head of comms for Reform called me a c**t.

It's not often I agree with them but fair play they were bang on money with this one.

As I'm planning next years field season, I wonder if anyone on here would like to run a small island project on Skúvoy with me. I will be catching and samling great skuas, but there will be good opportunities to investigate other aspects of seabird island ecology 🌍🧪 #seabirds

If anyone knows an alternative source for these snood things in nice colours/patterns, do share. The only similar ones I can find online are serious hiker ones patterned with maps of, like, Scafell Pike.

Sad to hear that quintessential actor Jack Shepherd has died. It was great to see him recently in one of his major roles as Renfield in Dracula, to character roles in Budgie, Crown Court and countless other films and TV, his talent shone through. Rest in peace dear Jack.

It's #Budget2025 Day!

Or rather "the big fiscal event"

Can you identify what is being referred to in these other second mentions?

Worn #onthisday in 1937 by actress Jill Esmond, trying on her "principal boy" costume for "Beauty and the Beast"--a Christmas pantomine staged by the Lyceum Theatre--at Will Clarkson's wig and costume studio in London. It was the first time she had ever worn tights. #OTD @europeana.bsky.social

Wisdom is an albatross.
She is 75.
She’s just come back to her breeding site, ready to go for the 25/26 season.
Respect.

I’m feeling pretty pleased with myself.
I’ve just done an online talk for Central Saint Martins about business for creatives.
It’s the first time I’ve done a full webinar by myself and I got a round of applause.
I’m buzzing!

Not content with selling out Ukraine to Russia and thereby putting the security of America’s allies at risk, the Trump regime is trashing the reputation of US science and risking the health of its children by rewriting the CDC website to suggest a link between vaccines and autism

A reminder I’m trying Christmas cards again this year. I spent most of yesterday drawing disappointed astronauts on the back of them. £5 each might sound pricey but it’s free postage if you’re in the UK. marswasrubbish.etsy.com/listing/4409...
