๐๐๐๐ฐ๐๐๐ผHi my friends. I'm sorry, I can't support this platform any longer. So sad - it's where I found & benefited from a kind writing community. I learnt a lot, made 1000+ connections & am building a new career. If you're on Threads, I'm still threads.net/@lgracewriter ๐ me!

Never been more thrilled with the juxtaposition of my face against an image. Itโs my pointing-at-a-pot-hole momentโฆ

To save our vanishing industrial heritage - sign here. Great thread. @ahrcpress @AMcMillanPoet @coal_legacies @CoalAuthority @NCMME @CoalfieldsRegen @BritGeoSurvey @miningheritage @UkNatArcRes @InspireArchives @ArchDigest @RIBA @CRTEastMidlands @bbcmtd @NottmCityOfLit @nottslive
There is a petition for those who would like to save all, or at least some, of the towers. But also I hope for a wider conversation about why we default to letting go of these features of our lives, in these parts of the world change.org/p/save-the-britisโฆ

There are more impotent things in the world
But just a little mention of an historic day in Nottinghamshire - and a plea to save some iconic architecture that has symbolised โhomeโ for many of us, all our lives. The cooling towers of Ratcliffe-on-soar. Soon to be blown upโฆ /1

ALT This image shows a group of four Welfare cast members sitting in a semi-circle, engaging in an interview with Trevor, who holds a microphone. The setting is Derby Theatre's rehearsal space with exposed brick walls and notes and papers posted on the walls behind them. The interviewer is leaning forward, and the cast members appear relaxed and engaged in conversation.

This sounds like a great read Philippa - looking forward to it.
So today my weird little collection is released. Today is also 4 weeks since I lost my dad. He won't get to read this, but I know he'd be incredibly proud. Thank you @parthianbooks for adding the dedication to him...๐ชถโค๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ๐

Love this! @CoalAuthority would be great to see if you could map the subsurface - even just Notts to begin with. There could be a 'bead-off' ๐ฌ @ekh_sci whaddya think?!
Now that's a gneiss map!
Earlier this year BGS' mental health & wellbeing team invited staff to create the 'beadrock' geology of the UK out of craft beads.
Based on the UK & Ireland map published by BGS in 2017, it features 176 individual beaded squares, all assembled by staff.
