After almost a year of practise with a very delicate stencil, we finally managed it. Happy #ShroveTuesday #PancakeDay! 🥞 In 2024, over £1 million of the grants we provided were for general living expenses and energy costs, including milk, eggs and the electricity and gas needed to cook food.

At the start of the year I needed to cut 20,000 words from my book manuscript. Today I passed the 10,000 mark and I’ve not gone through several sections yet. This thing is doable!

A curious feature of here and the other place. Random smiling new male follower who only follows women is definitely spam.

This place is definitely better than the other had become & yet there are still a lot of spammy followers. I learned at the other place that taking the trouble to block them is worth it. It reduces the number overall in the end & also means when anyone looks at your followers they’re real.

On this feast of Thomas Aquinas, a reminder of our Academic Dean Oliver Keenan’s recent book. Aquinas' era was defined by conflict and divisive politics, much like our own - his unfailing belief in the power of communication to overcome alienation and despair is an important lesson for us all.
