Unfortunately there was an accident with the pinhole camera, but the colander worked and neighbours lent us some proper viewing glasses 🕶️ #eclipse

The image shows the shadow of a colander on a white piece of card, little eclipses can be seen in each dot, forming a lovely pattern

The image shows a partial eclipse of the sun, viewed through a pair of eclipse sunglasses placed over the phone camera lens. Pretty isn't it!

The image shows a colander on a white piece of card, and a homemade pinhole camera/viewer made from a cardboard box, some tape, and some tinfoil

Phew! I'm trying to keep a handle on it all!

The image is of a laptop monitor - five kanban boards can be seen, in various stages of completion, each representing a different study / major task in the author's PhD

I tell people who admire my anxiety friendo that it was made by one of my online friends

The image is of a bedside lamp, a pillow, some plushies (including my anxiety friendo made by weenie) and a rabbit shaped eyemask

Self-imposed deadlines and self-inflicted stress is hard to explain to non-PhD students #phdlife

The image is of a diary page, it is ruled and there are handwritten notes in black and pink inks. Under the printed title "follow up" there is a handwritten list titled "Priorities" with seven items listed in order of what needs to be done first. The first five items on this list are all due in June - yikes!!

I feel your pain!

The image is of a computer screen with a structural equation model set out in all its messy glory. There are many many boxes and arrows, who knows what it all means!

Here's my beautiful boy

The image shows the head and face of a whippet, he's looking up expectantly at you from underneath the table - he hopes maybe some of that tasty smelling food on the table might be coming his way...

Really enjoyed my colleague Noa's Deaf Awareness Week session today - very grateful to her for sharing her experiences and teaching us a little BSL. Practicing finger spelling our names whilst saying (not spelling) was a fun challenge! #deafawarenessweek #deafawareness

We voted! #dogsatpollingstations #vote #localelections #democracy #suffrage

The image is of a grey and white whippet, with a blue lead and collar, standing outside a polling station. It's normally our community centre but today it is (very obviously) a polling station. I wonder if they had printed too many signs and felt that they had to use them?

Here! This is Princess Pixel - ditch diva and chaos goblin.

The image is of a small black feisty cat sitting on a duvet. Not seen, but inferred, is that the cat is sitting on, and pushing, the camera person's stomach.

Here we go, this is me and the void that is Pixel the Black Cat

The image is of a small menacing black cat sitting on the back of a human, who is lying face down on a bed. The human nad pink hair in two plaits. The black cat has smugness.

The picture is of a black cat sitting on their human's lap whilst the human tries to do some knitting. The knitting is a lovely rich burgundy colour. The cat is black and lurking.

The picture is of a black cat who has claimed this pouffe and all the blankets and cushions on it. Her claws are out, beware.

The image is of a small black cat - curled but wary, watch out she does not play nicely

I finished building my new Lego set yesterday - this is a MOC of the Love Birds set, making it into Treebeard the Ent 🌳 #lego #lotr #treebeard #ent #bankholiday #happyeaster

The image is of an Ent made out of brown and green Lego pieces - Merry and Pippin Hobbits can be seen stood on his head and shoulder. They are trying to persuade Treebeard to go to war...

The image is a close up of Lego Treebeard's face, with two hobbits sitting on his shoulder and head. Treebeard looks worried and the hobbits are brandishing their swords...

On ours the great tit, despite its size, often gets bullied off the fat brick by the bluetits or the gang of long tailed tits!

The image is of several long tailed tits on a fat brick hanging from a bird feeder. Below is a beech hedge (hibernating for winter) and behind, a lightly snow covered road.

View from the home office this morning ❄️

The image is of a slightly snowy scene, the grass in the foreground is lightly dusted, the trees have already shaken it off, but the paths are still very white and therefore slippery, and the canal is completely frozen. The sky is a cold, pale blue, with hints of sun on the tree tops. Welcome to Monday!

Yikes! I'm not sure I like where this is heading... #zipline #2026word
