A map of the top of my head, looking north. There used to be hair, but it's just air that's left these days.

Lily was a student in one of the last GIS cohorts I taught at Kingston University London around 2010. Today, 15yrs later and after forging a great geo-career in the UK, she joins the SoCal map factory. Small world! 🌍🌎🌏

According to our neighbour it'll soon be Christmas as his mega decoration frenzy gets underway. I should be grateful he had the courtesy to wait until November I guess. Only 53 days to go 🤦

My name is 3 letters long. Phonetically it's the same as it's spelt, and pronounced but I always spell it out anyway to avoid any possible confusion. I can't remember the last time I picked up a coffee for 'Ken' 🤦 I need a new coffee name. (Clean) Suggestions welcome.

You can check out my 2024 US election map, and my tribute to Ozzy Osbourne in the #NACIS map gallery. Or see them online (and grab your own copy) at links.esri.com/mappyhour

I handed out marmite as part of my #NACIS talk on cartograms today. Love it, or hate it, there's nothing about it in the code of conduct 👍

Given I have zero interest in horses carrying people, bourbon, or baseball bats I have very little reason to go to Louisville KY. Hopefully there's enough mappy content at #NACIS instead. See you there if any other carto people are headed that way too 👍

I yearn for the days you got on a bus, got in a queue, and bought a paper ticket to a gig you wanted to go to. These days everyone and their dog registers while they're sat on the pot. This 'random' nonsense means I'm not even allowed in the digital queue. #Radiohead

Next time you go to the #Smithsonian Air and Space museum check out this fantastic [my word] flight map on a new exhibit. I made it years ago. The museum asked to use it. No way was I rejecting the opportunity of having a map in the Smithsonian!

The shape of the River Wear is not even close to that of the River Tyne but even more baffling is the labels. Must have been added manually because they don't even exist in those relative positions. Sunderland's Stadium of Light on it too 🤦 Unbelievable! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Nearly 30yrs on from last seeing #oasis (at the now legendary Knebworth shows) when tickets were both a beautiful memento, and relatively cheap, I find myself picking out a bucket hat for this evening's #rosebowl #OasisLive25 show
