Trialling out the embroidery machine for @RadleyClimbing

First stage, draw a new .SVG logo to get a good quality digital file.

Then play with the digitising settings to get a stitch pattern that keeps the details but doesn't take an hour to stitch...

Been having fun at work this week playing with the inbuilt designs on @RadleyDesign's @JanomeUK embroidery machine to create #personalised workwear.

I made a thing, and it works! My first #3Dprint

First attempt at recreating a component - by measuring the broken part, producing a 3D computer model and printing it (with fingers crossed that I made it accurate enough to work).

Severe disruption at #Sheffield 'Due to a wartime bomb near the railway'

#TrainDelays #NotHeardThatBefore

[EVTamlyn @EVTamlyn]

Does mean no trains from #DidcotParkway to #Culham, #Appleford and #Radley until the platforms open up

[EVTamlyn @EVTamlyn]

Wellies recommended if travelling from #DID this morning! Platforms 4&5 are blocked, but the staff have placed some pallets down for access to platforms 2&3.

Sometimes you just have to get the coloured markers out...

Arrival time 17:25.

Not looking forward to several more weeks of this...

Definitely prefer travelling by train!

Investigating the #GWR rail replacement bus service from #RAD to #DID. Think the scheduling time is rather optimistic with the Botley Rd disrupted...

[EVTamlyn @EVTamlyn]

Extra confusing when a minibus pulled into Radley station rather than the bus stop on the main road where people were waiting.

I followed it in and confirmed that it is the delayed 16:20 service.

Perhaps @GWRHelp could get some signage up to confirm where to wait for the RRBs!

Before there was #Lego, there was Brickplayer...

Model building kits with actual (miniature) bricks and mortar - though the mortar is long gone from this kit:

When stretch receptors in the lungs detect an increase in lung volume (ie deep breathing), they send "we're safe!" messages to the brainstem.

Why? Stretch receptors are closely linked to the parasympathetic nervous system, which drives our relaxation response.

What an unexpected mood boost 🌞 - there’s a good chance that's actually me in this photo!

Even if it's not, I can still picture myself there - sat on the edge of lawn in the sunshine, in one of my favourite places in the world!

It's been less than a year since I started learning about #neurodiversity, but it's now one of the favourite parts of my job - treating students as individuals and providing the accommodations they need to sit their exams.

Am liking the Readers added context feature.

Presumably designed to help combat misinformation, it worked well here:

Response to headline: "Wait, what?!"
Response to context: "Oh, that makes much more sense, no need to waste any more time on that tweet! Keep scrolling..."

Did you know that tears can actually contain stress hormones?! Yet *another* reason not to bottle things up! @justinbaldoni joined Jameela this week to discuss the importance of expressing emotions, masculinity & more: https://t.co/B0g113g4lV

@anti_planner to the rescue! Turns out writing a #TaDaList is much more motivating than a to-do list, especially when there's a finite number of lines to fill...

Four more tasks to make today a roaring success - why yes, I will go out for that walk so I can write it on my list!

Investment in active travel infrastructure is an investment in health.

@Sustrans says walking and #cycling in UK cities saved the NHS more than £162 million in 2021, the equivalent cost of 5.4 million GP appointments.🩺
