Can’t believe I did my first panel conference this week, it was such an amazing experience to be a speaker and get to use my voice to highlight the barriers disabled students face in Higher Education.
Always a great Monday when I can spend the morning going through excavation reports from Corfe Castle and the importance of the castle to the Civil War
Archaeology: where every find that is old enough can be for ritual practice.
History: where gossip from the past, becomes more inciteful than comment sections after a YouTube scandal.

Just finishing watching blue Jean (2022) really good and eye opening about the implications of section 28 in the 1980s. Highly recommend for the history of LGBTQ+ rights!
Absolutely a little hidden gem in the landscape really so peaceful and archaeologically fascinating!
Ruins of a C17th church in blue skies and the ring ditch in the background.
A little appreciation for my fave place: the earthworks and church at knowlton henge, still grateful for the research completed by bmouth uni. Especially @durotrigesdig.bsky.social good memories of using every reference possible in first year, provided by the arch team at bmouth uni!
RIP Margaret of Anjou, she would have loved Running up that Hill (A Deal with God) by Kate Bush
Started to read to kill a mockingbird so interesting - will I finish the book? Idk, loved the Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath!
Miles did you accidentally get confused and purchase beer from Chernobyl 😂
Finished my dissertation and found my log in for this app! 🤩
2,800 words written for the Jane Austen Project I’m working on. I need to get this finished by Thursday but my MacBook won’t connect to wifi so time to join Miles in crying in a corner.
You sure you can’t take compassionate leave over this form of betrayal 😞
Martin Papworth is a G not as much as a GOAT as you though hey Miles!
Miles are you still crying in the corner, maybe your spirit haunts the hypocaust?
I bet your own department - they should have sent you or nobody at all 😞
@durotrigesdig.bsky.social is crying in a corner (Miles how do you feel right now?)
👀👀👀 Miles you sure about that??
Not the bloody hypocaust 😂
+15 points for miles
Miles x ancient technology centre collab was not what I was expecting used to be my fave place as a kid. #nostalgia

Still relevant and still as important as ever!!! (This is what I’m reading this month)
Sorry I’ve been off the earthly realm working on a Jane Austen project (I’m still frantically working on it) and celebrating my 21st with fairy rings and witches seats! Though a cool opportunity archaeology wise coming Monday!
Therapist: “Don’t worry Jem, Miles’ skeleton army can’t hurt you.”
Me: ‘then what’s this?!’
Miles that’s not what you should be saying 🤣🤣🤣
Honestly you concern me occasionally… are you alright?!
Should I be concerned what you are teaching your students Miles and what you are doing in the fields of Dorset 🤣
Did you raise them from the dead through ritual 😅
Thanks to @durotrigesdig.bsky.social aka the magnificent Miles I got a high 2:1 on my exam which was on Celtic Britain so thank you for what you do (a Miles appreciation post) 🥰
Got told hold a piece of a Lancaster that was shot down in Germany in WW2 today!
