I had a fabulous time speaking at the #GlobalJaneAusten conference at @unisouthampton this weekend. Fantastic papers, wonderful comments, and such an enthusiasm through the entire event.

Got a vinted notification about something I ordered last week during @sarahmillican75 ‘s show and realised I’m definitely a late bloomer 😂 it’s got pre-rolled up sleeves and everything!

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

Just what the Doctor ordered! (This joke will never get old)

Today Dr Batterbee got her special hat!

@greateranglia As in the route on our purchased ticket? As the London-Norwich direct is cancelled - can we take London-Cambridge, then Cambridge-Norwich?

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

@greateranglia will advance tickets from Liverpool Street to Norwich be allowed on the London-Cambridge route, and then from Cambridge to Norwich? Several people on Liverpool Street platform wondering same question

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

@greateranglia Do we need to get our advanced tickets authorised at Liverpool Street? Or can we just get on the train? Thank you x

Greenday at Wembley 15 years apart… the years have not been kind to me, but Dad looks exactly the same 😂

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

HAPP BIRTHD TO ME! (We lost the YAY candles somewhere 😂🤦‍♀️)
Mum made me a cake. Contrary to legal documentation, there’s no way there should be 34 candles on it.
This is my first birthday as Doctor Meg. Happy first birthday to me 😂

Nothing I have encountered depicts the experience of an underachieving overachiever better than Taylor Swift’s I Hate It Here. It is majestic and magnificent and has become my new personal anthem.

I’ve been wandering around the house singing “you’re not Dylan Thomas, I’m not Maggie Smith”… #TTPDAnthology #TTPD

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

Dad: “well, aren’t you a lot of colours”. I am taking this as the compliment he definitely isn’t giving.

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

Happy double album drop to those who celebrate. I will need a minimum of 5 working days to process this piece of magnificence.

[Taylor Swift @taylorswift13]

It’s a 2am surprise: The Tortured Poets Department is a secret DOUBLE album. ✌️ I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours. 🤍

Now it’s time for…. @HDTGM at the Hackney Empire!

When you’re watching the Beekeeper at the hotel for the @hdtgm live show, Statham pours the gasoline and this immediately happens… did Statham set off this fire alarm? @paulscheer @MsJuneDiane

@emmcgirr There is no way I wouldn’t have finished a book with this cover 😂😂

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

I have to take my library books back this week. A moments silence for Camilla, which was renewed 402 times and I still haven’t finished it 😂

[Dr. Megan Batterbee @MeganBatterbee]

First foray back into reading for fun by joining the @weirdosbookclub

I’ve just found an incorrectly attributed quotation in the final chapter of my thesis, and I have never hated that idiot first year PhD student that decided to handwrite all her notes more. 🤦‍♀️
