This an increasing and common story, dilemma. I'm only still in my home because I could pay off the mortgage with equity release (so a hidden hugely expensive 'lifetime' mortgage) and all my savings run out in 7rs at state pension age. It *is* terrifying. There is ZERO support. #LongCOVID
Yep.

Or a ladder to heaven, North York Moors, Durham Uni, 1985
There's something strangely comforting in washer-drier (UK) spin cycles at 3am. Loud. 1) machine still works. 2) laundering after yesterday's #LongCovid crash carnage (shat myself & vomiting). 3) End state of calm, clean, 6yrs+6wks Covid19 Post-viral is still killing me. Shower next. Terror. 😱

Since Blair and Mandy architected Starmer and the right-wing Labour we experience today, (and demonstrating their ineptitude in government) reacting against Corbyn et al, I find this and the timing bizarre. Nor is he ageing well in his immense wealth. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
If I may offer a small taster example from the North York Moors where the historic (and very prehistoric) fragile environment is taken into account. Our Mesolithic #archaeology is unique in many ways. timevista.co.uk/about/resear...
AI? Best denial. Passion. Being human. AI cannot have an original idea. This makes me emotional.

Historian Simon Schama on US defense secretary Pete Hegseth’s D-Day remarks.
Schama described the remarks as a “special kind of loathsomeness: a blend of historical deafness, grotesque stupidity and comically ludicrous self-importance.”

Guidance for managing peatland restoration projects, with a particular focus on maximising the benefits of these schemes for peatland heritage.
The youth of today are spoiled with their SFM and photogrammetry software that effortlessly produces orthophotos.
Back when I were I lad we had to do shit like this all the time. Anything to get an elevated perspective: Precariously balanced stepladders; hanging out of digger buckets. >>>

Peatlands are powerful. Here are just a few reasons why…
1. Peatland vegetation slows the flow of rainfall which helps reduce the risk of flooding in nearby towns and villages. Peatlands only cover around 3% of the world's surface but contains more carbon than all the world's rainforests.
As far as archaeological photography techniques are concerned, this is... erm... "different". 😬😂
