Farewell, cruel world (of Twitter/X). As I choose helping over hating… I’m migrating away from here. Friends can find me on Facebook. For more professional contacts, try LinkedIn. I might just also have a dabble at Instagram. Hope to see you on one of those platforms. 😊

Have you seen something which sums up your hometown? I’ve long loved being an observer of the world. So couldn’t help but chuckle when I saw… A gang of builders, working on a house… The radio up loud. But what were they listening to? It’s so very Cambridge… BBC Radio 4!

When teaching I always try to educate AND entertain. However… Having received the photos from the Motor Neurone Disease Association researchers conference… Where I ran a workshop on public speaking for their scientists… Apparently, I was also doing Saturday Night Fever. 🕺

If I look relaxed, contented and fulfilled… That’s because I am. ♥️ Thank you so much to everyone who organised and came along to the @mndresearch conference. It was a career highlight, meeting you and working with you. The best of luck with your so very important research.

I’ve finally worked out what people see in golf… The courses make a great outdoor gym. 😉
