In a surprise to literally zero working mothers, researchers at the University of Oxford have found that the careers of women who take parental leave are adversely affected. Conversely men who take extended parental leave are seen as leadership material and therefore more likely to progress.
Bike was serviced for first time in like three years. Sailed past half a dozen people on Magdalen bridge, while wearing a giant rucksack. I should get it serviced more often 🤣
I have very few followers and even fewer photos of today but just want to put out into the universe that every person who turned up to Magdalen Road Festival and danced in the rain today is epic. Retailers and charities had a good day. This is what community looks like. Extra thanks to volunteers 😍
It’s tomorrow!!! Can’t wait. If you’re Oxford-ish, do pop along…
Paging Darwin…
These 15 min cities are terrible. It took me 15 minutes to walk the 5 minutes from the bus stop because I kept meeting neighbours and chatting. And then I accidentally got diverted into the pub. It’s a conspiracy.
Posting in to the ether because 😱
Currently with a relative in a hospital for reasons. Also trying to work. Woman in next bed has gangrene 🤢, someone is scream/ coughing and a man has just turned up with a guitar leading a singsong ‘Oh what a beautiful morning’ 🤷♀️ NHS staff are heroes.
Totally normal Saturday morning. Pirate hat v useful for politely turning round carrrrrs
I mean I am not made of sugar but today I had to have a word with myself to get on a bike. Zoomed past the traffic though?!
