@Hogojohnnie1 @Flight_Refunds @AerLingus I agree @AerLingus are a disgrace and the way they dealt with me and my family from start to finish has been appalling.

[Katie Proctor @ArchConservator]

Really disappointed in @AerLingus Delayed flying to Dublin so we missed our connection to NYC. We were put on a plane to Philly so had to make our own way to NY with two small children. They can't even grace us with a response to our claim for costs incurred due to their mistakes

Well, I'll never look at my porridge (or my pulp) the same way again! 🤣

[West Yorkshire Archive Service @wyorksarchives]

#TodayInConservation we are back with another exciting game: Pulp or Porridge? Can you tell which is which?

[Katie Proctor @ArchConservator]

Look at all these beautiful pigments! 😍

@ARA_PCG @CumbriaArchives @wyorksarchives It was amazing to work with Fay and turn her to the dark side, sorry; conservation 😝

[Katie Proctor @ArchConservator]

She's kept me busy for 4 years and I think that's likely to continue. Looking forward to season 2! #GentlemanJack2 #AnneListerDiaries

Wow thank you @ARA_PCG and @conserve_lfcp for an amazing training session on Environmental Sustainability, now to get my skates on and make some changes. I feel empowered!

🚨 Job alert! 🚨 What a great opportunity at the Bodleian for a Preventive Conservator:

Here at Wakefield we hold some very special (& rather old) documents from the 12th c. 📜This is an Inspeximus, by Henry de Lacy, confirming a 1194 charter (WMT/PO/1/185). When we retrieve them for a visitor, we all have to take a moment & have a look! #BehindTheScenes
