Mthr Rosemary Hill @mthrrosehill.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Board gamers… Is there a universal fitting tray or roll out mat for tile games so that the pieces stay neat when you pick them out or put them down? Also is there such a thing as a sticky pen type thingy for picking up tiles so that you’re not knocking the ones next door out of place? 211

Mthr Rosemary Hill @mthrrosehill.bsky.social · 22/11/2025Productive evening of PhD work. Currently on thematic analysis. I’m finding this hard. This is heart work as well as head work.

Mthr Rosemary Hill @mthrrosehill.bsky.social · 08/09/2025I’ve found study hard this year.
