Cannot reiterate enough that @sciencemuseum practice of low pay (paying eg. Explainers, C.£17k pa) squeezed many of my talented friends (and me) out of the museum to other jobs; or otherwise has made them rely on partners to make up missing funds for London living costs ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

"If museums next door can afford to pay the real living wage then so can SMG, especially when annual reports show the group in significant surplus." I'd rather not be striking but that is what we are going to do at the end of this month. prospect.org.uk/news/id/2019/A…

Just happened across this fucking clown in an @The_RHS t-shirt, flogging RHS endorsed weed killer, which is better than “glyso-phate”, apparently. And we should be buying it in bulk & using it on weeds like clover, chickweed and dandelions. Are you having a laugh, RHS?

Born in the Whittington Hospital in Archway. Raised in Tottenham. Went to school in Peterborough. Member of Parliament and the Queen's privy council. Drink tea like it's going to run out and avoid eye contact on the tube. I am as English as you mate. Deal with it.

I rarely owned books as a child, instead I went to my local library. It was there that I developed my love of reading, & later writing. It makes me sad that children might grow up never having a local library. All libraries need to be saved. When they go, they go forever.

Today a 5yr old brought a fragment of #Carboniferous #plant into the #museum for us to identify. Along with dad & grandad, we ended up having a good old nosey at some in the Museum's collection - here's just a few 320 million year old ferns for your #fossilfriday delight

I didn't spend my training budget last year - so 2019 I really need to! Looking for recommendations on any courses/seminars/lectures on Landscape/Urban Design and related that will expand my mind and inspire me! #landscape #landscapearchitecture Any ideas @eddwall @tim_waterman ?

EVERY COMPANY: We'd like to promote mental health in the workplace. EMPLOYEES: How about hiring more people so we feel less pressured & increase our pay so we can keep up with the spiraling cost of living so we're not so stressed out. EVERY COMPANY: No not like that. Try Yoga.

This is what computational design is about: automating tedious tasks to deliver efficient, optimised solutions. I've never understood why it's taken the industry so long to develop such tools.

Automate things that should to be automated. Surface parking should not be something you spend hours a day on at work. Hire TestFit to draw surface parking!

If you have room in your #garden for just one extra shrub, for #bees sake, please make it Mahonia! It copes well with cold weather, snow, and frosts. So if we suddenly get a cold snap, unlike many other plants, it will continue to flower.

The £13m for parks and green spaces actually works out at about £481 per park (and that’s not counting green spaces, play spaces community gardens etc ) Not much of an ‘investment’ is it ?

In other words 1/3rd of what they spent not doing the Garden Bridge (which would have had 1/2 a football pitch of greenery). FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY

I've done it! I've finally made a bumble bee I'm proud of. I wanted to get all those tiny details in, not just a ball of fluff! 😊 what do you think? #bumblebees #saveourbees

This completely resonated with me on #Winterwatch. The mountain has become my solace, my special place, a powerful, yet peaceful environment. A place I go to be, to think, to be enveloped, to destress. A weekly walk in the mountain with my dog Rio is my therapy.
