Our school does a £1 Christmas jumper sale and the same for world book day costumes. Money goes to the Friends association for school improvements.

Same for “forgårs” - the day before yesterday. I don’t get why English doesn’t have words for it.

Overmorgen (the day after tomorrow) is in common use in Danish. It’s such a useful word.

Took Charlie the cat to the vet. I think someone at the vet’s was either inspired, or bored, or possibly both. This is the bag of medication we were provided.

Does anyone have a contact email for the Business Archives Council. I've tried the contact form, but no reply, and the only email I can find on the webpage keeps bouncing back. I just need a very simple question answered.

This is my Mormor. Today she’s 90! That’s quite something.

Oh, this is not for "correcting" existing catalogues. We are not going to change words/phrases that is used in the records, but rather add a statement regarding language used at the time, which I believe is common practice.

I should be able to.

Anne-Grethe Jensen @daneanne.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
Thank you. That’s the line I’ve been taking, but my managers want confirmation that that is the general consensus amongst archives, so I am just gathering evidence for common practice.

Someone accidentally shares a document to 2000+ people at work. Cue everyone sending "reply all" asking whether they should have received it, or for variation, stating that they have mistakenly been included in the share.

Thank you. I head a presentation from them a few years ago on that subject, but of course couldn't remember which archive it was.

Does any archives people have good examples of how to deal with offensive/outdated language in archive material when cataloguing? Anyone have any examples/guidelines/polices/articles they can send my way?

In the spring I agreed to become the new leader of the Saturday School Danish lessons at the Danish Church in London. Trying to find teachers, all volunteers, over the summer has been one of tge most stressful things I’ve ever had to do.

He and his dad is off to The Valley next weekend. I can only imagine the scenes caused by the boy if they win (and equally if they don’t).

Can we all just agree that unless it is "oh, that looks nice" or "your lunch smells delicious" or other positive comment, there is no reason whatsoever, at all, you should comment on a colleague's lunch.

As we’re in the midst of harvest season, here’s a man weaving a basket in SE England. Taken by Douglas Glass, a Sunday Times photographer working in the 1950s and 1960s. We now hold his full archive so keep an eye out over the next few weeks as we reveal more of these treasures. @thetimes.com

She was married before she started working there, so not entirely sure what the story is. I will have to do more digging. I know it was usual at that time that you’d give up work when you got married. She definitely kept it a secret.

Well impressive. Though it does look like Mr White’s was out of the story by mid 1920s, so… 🤷🏼‍♀️

Anne-Grethe Jensen @daneanne.bsky.social · 14/08/2026
I’m now on the hunt for evidence of Mr White’s death as she was a widow (listed under both Davies and White) in probate lists. I love a good mystery! 🤔

Anne-Grethe Jensen @daneanne.bsky.social · 14/08/2026
So, I found out today that a past (1920s-1940s) member of staff always known as Miss Davies was in fact married and was Mrs White. Nothing in our archive, not even her obit in The Times or staff magazine, has any indication that she was married. But marriage certificate on Ancestry does not lie.

Missed #ConfinedCocktails last Saturday as there was a wedding I had to attend. This is the only photo of me with a drink in my hand video calling MIL in Norway who was too ill to travel. I’m very happy @heritageadrian.bsky.social took this sneaky photo. Today the tipple is fruity cider.
