Made the decision to leave Xitter for good last week.
BlueSky is developing into a good collaborative space for UK based educators (teachers, academics etc.) right now.
I'm not sure why this platform is more popular than Mastodon tbh, but hopefully there will be an increase in users here soon. I'm fairly quiet on here due to this reason, but it's a shame as I think Mastodon is better. Here's to the #Fediverse !

I love the colours and reflections in this photo. It gives it an almost surreal animated effect. #Photography #Sunset #Dublin #RoyalCanal #Ireland
Still very much enjoying experimenting with new recipes for #Veganuary

Any @edutooters in Bangkok or greater Thailand? I have a chemistry job interview and if it all goes well I guess the family and I are moving there!

It has been nearly a week now of post-Christmas healthier tea choices. This one was very tasty indeed: red pepper, potato and spinach stew with saffron.
Hugh F-W certainly knows his stuff. Great recipe 👍
Stopped off at #RudstonMonolith today on the way to #Bridlington with today.

Snow Squirrel
Watching red squirrels scurrying and springing around a woodland in the Highlands is wonderful, but add a blizzard into the mix, and magic happens.
With big, fat flakes of snow falling through the canopy, I managed to get a shot of one of the resident squirrels as it leapt from a branch.

@drdpj vodka x2 measures and Grand Marnier x1 which is nice but heady as it’s not a particularly long drink. Juice of 1/2 a lemon also gives it a bite!
