@PeopleUom @OfficialUoM @peopleandplanet Thank you for your great efforts on Friday, even in the rain! It was nice to see people trying to make a difference :) Also glad those security guys couldn't make you stop making a noise :D

First day marking exam papers! *_* I've done teaching, invigilating, marking, resits, and graduation over the last few years! :)

@MRSearchDogsEng @_KMRT I knew of Dan as a tech at UoM, from my undergrad yrs, then got to know him thru PhD yrs and 6 mnth as his collarbone injury-sub! He'd do anything to help, with humour that made him great fun. Was nice knowing he'd found a 2nd life on the hills. I'll always have good memories!

Nice day in Wasdale and made it up (and down!) Scafell Pike :D #mountain

Had more fell running fun at Pendle on Saturday :D Just Wardle Skyline now before 3 Peaks Race... Eeek! Thanks to @WoodentopsFR for photos and @ClaytonleMoors for putting on a great event! All hail the Lancashire Champion @CSHoldsworth ! #Lancashire

Back to running longer distances! :D 12mi longest run this week and building up to 15mi for March 24th at Heptonstall Fell Race! #running

@CSHoldsworth @cannonballevent :D Good luck for the season @CSHoldsworth Keep giving the rest of us something to aim for :)

[Draco @a_draconis]

@cannonballevent Fantastic route and organisation at Windy Hill Fell Race. Thanks to all the marshals who put up with the rough weather and whole team for making it a great day out! #PrestonHarriers Well done to the winner @CSHoldsworth too for running in a vest! *_*

@PennyLane_1985 Hello Penny Lane Striders! Is the NWSCCL race this Sunday open to "guest" runners? :) Thanks for any info!

[Draco @a_draconis]

So Preston Station rated "poor", no services to Liverpool today (as I planned), and no Merseyrail tomorrow... Looking good! PRE-LIV #trains

Happy New Year! #2018

#catalanrepublic A great day! Long live an independent Catalunya!

[Draco @a_draconis]

Hi @GUSAHandH What date is the 5mi race this year? Or is it shifting to February from now on? Thanks! #Glasgow

[Draco @a_draconis]

@NatWestT20Blast @LancsCCC Come on Lancashire!!! But, to be pedantic, isn't our "home-ground" in Trafford, Greater Manchester??? #RedRoseTogether

[Draco @a_draconis]

Pondering @Canalathon 2018 but thinking if they really need another 7h finisher for 50km... Cool medal though... :D

[Draco @a_draconis]

Student finance, season tickets to get to uni & teacher training... This could be a most hilarious year! *_* #ITT #trainfares #studentloans

[Draco @a_draconis]

@SF_England I know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

[Draco @a_draconis]

@SF_England Thank you for the information! :) I don't think it's fair that you could change them after the fact, though, if that's what's implied.

[Draco @a_draconis]

@SF_England I did MChem '05-09 & start ITT Sept with another loan for fees. Will new interest rts apply to 2005-09 debt? They're horrific :O
