Made the mistake of opening LinkedIn and it turns out I've been wasting my time on these final thesis edits; will be instead applying for an honorary doctorate in my own Passionate Skill (exact skill tbc: ice cream consumption, perhaps)

lovely to be back on site at Beamish today sharing some preliminary takeaways from the PhD, featuring one of my top 3 favourite historical Beamish posters - so bad it's brilliant, and it comes in lifesize form in the archive!
submitted my thesis this morning, took a selfie with the printed copy I've been proofing to celebrate the occasion
this looks like a fab PhD! can personally attest to a CDA with an open air museum being a great way to do PhD research too
Having run a Beamish and a Durham Microsoft account on the same computer for 3.5 years, I feel this deeply in my soul
big up the Derwent Pencil Museum for real (nice to see open-air museums get some love too!)
Saturday night on the Chippy Train between Bolton Abbey and Embsay, a very on brand experience

This thread about underrated or overrated museums is so nice because instead of sticking it to overrated places it's mainly full of so much love for the underrated ones (people seem to really like Museum of the Home) <3
