Edinburgh College of Art are throwing me a party! Wednesday, March 19 · 5:15 - 7pm GMT, both in person at ECA and online. Do register though if you are interested as there are limited places. It will be great to see some of you there. 😊

Universities drive economic growth. This has been proved time and again. A couple of airport expansion projects that won’t start for a decade, if ever, will not. And yet we are witnessing right now sector-wide catastrophic failure of HE in the UK.

🧵SALT🧵 It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question: Have you ever wondered where that grit actually COMES from? The answer is more magical, beautiful and fascinating than you probably realised. 1/14

With below freezing temperatures forecast this week, it could be a good time to "trial" lower flow temperatures with your gas boiler to see if your house is heat pump ready. You can always turn it back it if things don't work out. Cold days can be very useful. 👍 energy-stats.uk/what-size-he...
