Excited to see @jonwestaway.bsky.social and coeditors’ great collection in my local independent bookshop @grovebookshop.bsky.social Was going to offer to do signings of my chapter but thought again!

So much history on the @universityofleeds.bsky.social campus and much of it brilliantly navigated by heritage corner for Black History Month. Joe Williams is an inspiration. Here he is outside my school of PCI. A bonus to walk round with @bethjohnsontv.bsky.social

Brilliant place to read my birthday present and to celebrate the poets curated by @helenmort.bsky.social in this fab collection. That Norman McCaig poem on Climbing Suilven is my favourite!!

Staying in a treehouse for my birthday and sampled the bird life through song on Merlin. So rich and varied.

Total privilege to work with students at St John Fisher in Harrogate today. What a brilliant set of students. And Stanislavsky still has something to say!

Quite impressive digital projection for the #Vangogh immersive exhibition. But a strangely cold experience I felt. Anyone else been?

I lost my dad to dementia last October. I had written a poem before he died which tried to evoke some of our experiences and I too focused on cutlery

A poem about dementia and how it blunts perceptions

Just like old times. Writing a short piece on #Stanislavsky and place. And only a passing reference to mountains!

Struggling to choose how best to celebrate Burns after a cracking veggie Haggis. But think it may be my new Campbeltown

My hard work is done and I’ve completed the #whisky advent challenge. 25 different whiskies with some real belters. Think the Balblair 15 was one of the best. And has a surprise Christmas present of exactly that!

Just putting a book proposal together for White Rose University press. It’s called ‘a history of mountains in a dozen objects’. What would be your object, one which is intimately connected to a mountain and also with your experience of it?

Like late autumn should be - parky! As they say up north.

How lovely to come home in freezing conditions to this lovely book brilliantly edited by @jonwestaway.bsky.social Paul Gilchrist and Peter Hansen. My chapter is on Everests on stage - a surprisingly common thing!

Celebrating my wonderful PhD student’s success tonight. So proud of you Simone Kenyon. What a fantastic defence of a stunning Practice Research project on mountain site relational practice. Brilliantly examined by @deeheddon.bsky.social and Anna Fenemore.
