Today I've been signing off emails with "All the beast" and, although a typo, I think I mean it.

Still time to apply.... www.newscareers.co.uk/vacancies/45...

Took Charlie the cat to the vet. I think someone at the vet’s was either inspired, or bored, or possibly both. This is the bag of medication we were provided.

Does anyone have a contact email for the Business Archives Council. I've tried the contact form, but no reply, and the only email I can find on the webpage keeps bouncing back. I just need a very simple question answered.

Reposting with the added info that salary will depend on experience, but will be within ARA recommendations.

Come work with me. Great team! Really interesting collections! The post is primarily working with our very extensive photographic collection. www.newscareers.co.uk/vacancies/45...

This is my Mormor. Today she’s 90! That’s quite something.

Someone accidentally shares a document to 2000+ people at work. Cue everyone sending "reply all" asking whether they should have received it, or for variation, stating that they have mistakenly been included in the share.

Does any archives people have good examples of how to deal with offensive/outdated language in archive material when cataloguing? Anyone have any examples/guidelines/polices/articles they can send my way?

A lively boatyard framed by the distinctive sails of traditional twakows and tongkangs in Singapore. Another shot taken by Douglas Glass in the 1950s for @thetimes.com #DouglasGlass #Singapore #boatyard #twakows #tongkangs

This was fun... www.thetimes.com/uk/photograp...

Can we all just agree that unless it is "oh, that looks nice" or "your lunch smells delicious" or other positive comment, there is no reason whatsoever, at all, you should comment on a colleague's lunch.

As we’re in the midst of harvest season, here’s a man weaving a basket in SE England. Taken by Douglas Glass, a Sunday Times photographer working in the 1950s and 1960s. We now hold his full archive so keep an eye out over the next few weeks as we reveal more of these treasures. @thetimes.com

Views from the archive today.

When you’re at work, but it’s not the usual office.

Missed #ConfinedCocktails last Saturday as there was a wedding I had to attend. This is the only photo of me with a drink in my hand video calling MIL in Norway who was too ill to travel. I’m very happy @heritageadrian.bsky.social took this sneaky photo. Today the tipple is fruity cider.

Ahead of England v Norway on Saturday, we're sharing classic moments between the two. Here's Kevin Keegan with a Viking bust in Oslo after their 1981 World Cup clash taken by Peter Jay for @thesun.co.uk. See @thetimes.com article on a famous bit of match commentary: www.thetimes.com/sport/footba...

Me, having sung at numerous weddings during my church choir year: better remember to print order of service copies for organist and singers so they can check against their version of the hymns.

The comms team at work are getting a fair bit of material out of the archives team at the moment. It is really exciting to have this new display space at HQ. I hope colleagues will enjoy it. www.linkedin.com/posts/newsar...

This weekend’s to do list for wedding on Saturday: - make guestbook ✔️

Let’s just agree that if Kane gets injured that’ll be it for England!

Well, that was rather boring football.

Me - having sung in a church choir from age 9 to 19 and having decided on Danish hymns for my wedding when I was a teen - emails organist with hymn number & details of tune incl. which arrangement I’d prefer. Organist: “If every bride was as organised as you my job would be much easier!”

It's been a busy couple of weeks in the archives. Last week we had this pop up exhibition to celebrate the start of the World Cup. This week we have installed our first Tools of the Trade display in the new display case in the canteen. www.linkedin.com/posts/anne-g...

It's a little known fact that back in the old days #Orkney horses were masters of disguise and could easily blend into their surroundings. You might not believe this but there is a horse standing in this photograph. LIKE if you think you see it. SHARE if you DEFINITELY see it.

Oh! 😢 www.thetimes.com/uk/media/art...

I’ve had glasses since I was 9, until I was an adult it gradually got worse. The. The last 8 years or so my eyesight has gotten better at every eye test. Is that normal?

Why, oh why, does dress shopping have to be such a task!?

Nice use of archive content online and in print for @thetimes.com for this piece on the General Strike. #archives www.thetimes.com/uk/history/a...

ARA Conference booked - anyone I know going?

When your friend has the perfect stamp for sending their reply to the wedding invite you sent them.

Publication day for the second in our series of #photography book curated from our own vast photo archive @thetimes.com Elizabeth. #archives timesbookshop.co.uk/the-times-el...

Whoever was on the late shift last night had the thought of making a cup of tea and then… got distracted?

Thinking about creating an "archive/RM handbooks" library for our apprentice and other staff. Any suggestions on what should be included? Any archive course teachers out there with reading lists?
