@LaurenJOConnell I did the same a few years ago, going from academia to public sector research. The difference in work-life balance is astonishing. Best of luck!

Got to the last paper before tech problems at @SNSBI_official virtual conference. Ah well - has been great up to now!

[SNSBI @SNSBI_official]

Everyone seems to be enjoying the first virtual conference! ^_^

Just attended a great @InsightBritish Q&A on student mobility in the time of Covid. Particularly good on the uses and limitations of forecasting #GoingGlobal2020

This apparently isn't satire. I'm speechless (and also left wondering what Joe Strummer would have thought of Johnson as a Clash fan...)

[Armando Iannucci @Aiannucci]

What the fuck is this?

[Andrew Prescott @Ajprescott]

In an article today, @caitlinmoran described a visit to Treasures Galllery @britishlibrary and noticed how few 'treasures' were written by or about women. So I'm going to tweet each day for the next 3 weeks, a BL 'treasure' by a woman. Feel free to join in. #BLwomentreasures

Off to find out more about Scotland's population surveys. Not a bad way to spend a dreich Thursday night!

Edinburgh looking extra glowery for my trip through this morning.

The uk will be doing a lot better when so many of us don’t confuse being clever (and I am all for being clever) with being a posh boy in a suit sprinkling latin. (I am all for Latin too, but not the sprinkled variety!)

@cheryfayre Thanks Juulia! ☺️

[Ellen Bramwell @EllenBramwell]

Forgot to mention that I was in a Finnish newspaper! There might be a paywall though...

Even sorrier to have missed the @Scotplacenames winter conference this year now I've seen the view!

[Alice McGready @ach_fooey]

In Arrochar for the @Scotplacenames conference. Should be a legal requirement for all conferences to have this sort of backdrop!

[Marc Alexander @marcgalexander]

This week is the tenth anniversary of the publication of the Historical Thesaurus of English! 22 October 2009 was our launch party, and it was fantastic to see so many old and new pals this week for our anniversary.

Closing session of a wonderful conference! Thanks to all the organisers - just had a big round of applause for @ainiala - and the participants! #personalnames2019

Aleksandar Loma spanning continents and so much ground with his discussion of Indo European equine and lupine names #personalnames2019
