Ok. Last few days of this crowdfunder for @QueenGreensBus being matched by Aviva, so yes I’m going to be irritating. Every share, every penny REALLY helps. Thank you.

Me again. We are creeping to 17% funded. Only 11 more days of match funding available. So grateful for the shares & support but am getting worried. Our bus service supports 427 young families a week. We can’t afford to keep hiring a van. 😢 🫛🥦🍅🍎

Exciting announcement time! On 24 October 'The Philosophy of Puddings' is published by @BL_Publishing. I loved writing this little book that's part of the 'Philosophy of...' series.
Preorder at your favourite bookshop, or direct from the BL shop: shop.bl.uk/collections/the-p…
You just *know* it's going to be *another* favourite cookbook from @meerasodha when Chapter One is Aubergines. But first, Baked Butter Paneer. I'm going rogue - having it with the coconut-y Chickpea Pancakes because, well, I can. 😋 #Dinner
Do you remember watching Play for Today when it was on TV in the 1970s or 1980s? If so, please get in touch (see email address in image)
I'm *especially* wanting to hear from any viewers who lived in Northern Ireland, Northern England, the Midlands, or saw it outside the UK!
Anyone know anything, or written anything, about the musical comedy duo Vic Marlowe and Bobbie Medlock? Limited information online that I can find, am desperate to be fascinated, especially by their 1950s massive head mask routines... @staffordquips? Ta! m.imdb.com/name/nm1394327/bi…
I loved the historical knowledge and archival bits in this - well done @DeborahSuggRyan - particularly seeing some shots of the Edinburgh Ideal Home Exhibition at Waverley & a glimpse of Zena Skinner! Had me reminiscing about our old kitchen, hatch, kettle, manual whisk & more!👏
Cover reveal! We are thrilled to announce that @thomeagle is joining our 'Philosophy of...' gang. The Philosophy of Pickles and Fermented Foods publishes this September. This book will cover all aspects of pickling with images from the BL collection. Pre-order now from @bl_shop!

*Books time to collapse on Monday*
Love archives? @louisewelsh00 and I need a research assistant for an intersectional local history project in association with our friends @wcdtgarden PT over 14 weeks, so would suit a doctoral researcher... jobs.ac.uk/job/DIT752/resear…
