Season finale! 🎉
We get a little philosophical in this one: Liz, Solange and Jenny talk about use of #collections and objects, #access and human nature 💭
We'd originally intended for this episode to be a road trip special but due to Life Events (a house move) for one of our team members this'll now be a Patreon bonus episode instead. 🗺️ Thanks for understanding!

Yesterday I had great fun giving a masterclass talk on caring for #metals at the #MuseumsAndHeritageShow in London: I tried giving people an idea of what the most common reasons for #corrosion are, and how we can best avoid those and keep our metallic friends happy.
I like bringing props, so here are two beautiful sets of keys: the bundle on the left has been given a protective coating, and the one on the right hasn't. 🔑

It's been roughly a year since I got the keys for my workspace in #Carmarthen and I'm still so chuffed I could make it happen.
It's a sunshine yellow workshop filled with my quirks, happy music, weird podcasts, bespoke tools, and other things I deem essential (like a coffee maker and a napping area).
Shaping your own workspace is magical, y'all.

In a wonderful takeover special we let the #conservators at the #NationalTrust run wild: there are cozy walks, there are comfy chats, there's even excitable stags at the very end! 🦌 (Maybe this isn't everyone's definition of wild, actually...)

Happy Halloween! 🎃
I've made another #conservation themed (or more accurately IPM themed) pumpkin this year: the SILVERFISH!
Previous years have included woolly bears, clothes moth, and tape. Because of course.
Keep it spooky out there! 🎃

I'm super proud to be quoted (via @thecwordpodcast) in the latest issue of News in Conservation where Sharra Grow has written a fantastic article about #conservators and how we (mis)treat our own bodies in the quest for preservation of material culture.
It's well worth a read.
