@CAPittard @hitwpompey Excellent evening, and great venue. I’ll be back.

@CAPittard Yeo - those highlights interspersed with substandard 90s fillers that have you scrolling through your instagram feed.

@RosiMonkman @JuliaGillard @AJogee What?!

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

@CAPittard Ah yes, Alice Lisle. I’m not so surprised. Growing up in Hampshire I remember Judge Jeffries still being a reviled figure, so it’s not just a West Country memory. But then Mica Clarke tells that story too.

@RWLDproject @CAPittard When you said railways, I imagined ticket punching. This is really impressive - an early experiment in decarbonisation. And many mergers and acquisitions later the company still has a presence in Staffordshire. The ears are magnificent.

A really interesting role here to build local engagement with a global project led by students involving thousands of young film-makers across the world. @Keele_MCC @ArtsKeele

Come and join us for this important event

@AlannahTomkins Fab. Are you in touch with @BrickwrksMuseum?

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

@CAPittard It’s a better than usual TOTP night, culturally analysing each era from a sofa is more enjoyable than the sometimes forced hedonism of the day.

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

An important episode in an excellent series, providing a perspective on what many of us remember well - the deliberate widening of UK inequalities in the 80s, burying Britain’s greatest moment in history as the most equal country in the world in 1973. @DavidOlusoga @dannydorling

A stray few autocorrect words there. No whining involved.

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

Really good to see Keele improving its already strong performance in KEF, and whine that brilliant to work with staff and students who are so passionate about making a difference.

@michaelredwood Excellent article @michaelredwood

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

@CAPittard @michaelredwood Late to the party on this one, but yes almost certainly early Huguenots - lots of intermarrying French families in the early records.

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

@CAPittard Not so long ago I had to scroll through burnt versions of these in negative on a microfiche machine.

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

@CAPittard No you’re right, son of John (1706) and Elizabeth Crisshold. John’s parents were George and Susanna. I can’t get get any further than that, but then the Monmouth Rebellion had ripped the area apart 20 years earlier. 7x GF isn’t bad going for the labouring classes.

[Ann Pittard @AnnPittard]

Just great to see this annual exhibition become such a feature in the area’s cultural calendar. To think we once asked ‘will anyone come?’.

[Arts Keele @ArtsKeele]

In just over a week since the preview, the #3counties2023 exhibition has welcomed around 500 visitors to Burslem School of Art!🌟Rain or shine, it's wonderful to see so many people coming to support #artsandculture in the city 🫶
