@gwr.com why is your service so bad? When are you due to be nationalised? Standing room only in the middle of the day in Cardiff as you don't have enough carriages. 0/10

Apart from that time Rory left the tap running for a couple of minutes, our local data centre uses very little water, but it does offer exceptionally accurate information and well-written, original literature. It's also free for everyone.

Sunday book review: Unwilded by @alastairhumphreys.bsky.social Publisher: @eyebooks.bsky.social Review: markavery.info/2026/07/26/s... 'not very long but a very enjoyable read' #disconnect #reconnect

Football wins #worldcup

Wayne Rooney on the HT show on the BBC: "I like a lot of them artists, but I thought it was crap."

For once I agree with Wayne #Rooney. That #worldcup show was crap. Not that I watched it. The whole concept is crap

A bit cooler today, so a nice morning for a local walk in #Swansea

I never thought I would say this but I can't remember the last time it rained in #Swansea

Will Lee Dixon ever stop talking? @itvnews.bsky.social #worldcup #itv

Who doesn't love a bit of gossip?

What determines relationships between interviewer and interviewee in oral history research? bit.ly/4gwipCy Nilakshi Das's new Transactions article questions the value of 'insider' status, arguing instead for models of positionality based less on identity than training and approach #Skystorians 1/2

How UK higher education -- and education policy/the country in general -- is viewed in Germany. Wie peinlich. What a mess.

A hot one in #Swansea today!

pspspsps 🖐 Cute? Yes. Touch? No 🚫 If you’re lucky enough to spot a potential wildcat kitten in the Cairngorms National Park, please give them space. Mothers may leave their kittens for a period of time to hunt for food. Find out what to do next ➡️ savingwildcats.org.uk/haveyouseenawildcat

Irony: 1. The only realistic way I'm going to find readers of a book about turning off your phone and going outside is by pestering you on your phones. 2. This video promoting a book about paying attention is almost three minutes long... and therefore guaranteed to be watched by almost nobody.

'This ... makes 'Innovations in Teaching History' a timely publication that should be at the top of any list of reading materials, not just for scholars teaching the 18th century but those teaching history in any capacity.' uolpress.co.uk/book/innovat... #OpenAccess Thanks @bsecs.bsky.social!
