🐾 Happy #NationalPetDay
We know that dogs have been our loyal companions for thousands of years, evidence suggesting they were domesticated from wolves tens of thousands of years ago. Their evolution alongside humans has led to a deep bond & connection we share with them today

If you’re in Warwick well worth a visit. Although Warwickshire is a land locked county we have some amazing canals and rivers!

Very fond memories of using Moseley Baths as a child - beautiful, loved have the changing facilities along the side of the pool. Memorising looking at the ceiling whilst doing backstroke.

Heartbreaking 💔 and inspiring

Inspiring keynote at #eblida24 by Rolf Hapel setting libraries in context in our rapidly changing society to find a vital and refreshed purpose for them

Moon sighted #Eidmubarak2024 to all celebrating in the UK & around the world today.

A time to be grateful for the blessings in our lives.

And to reflect on how we can spread kindness and compassion to those less fortunate.

I want to wish all you all a happy and blessed Eid.

This took me back recalling the days of the National Front and ‘Skinheads’ as a youngster? From where I was- We were Indians, Pakistanis, Bengalis, Sri Lankans, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs all facing the same discrimination. “Go back home” was a common chant..

Heartbreaking- never in my lifetime did I think I would witness such suffering, with the world watching such scenes on a daily basis. Immediate ceasefire and hostages released. We must allow the international press to enter Gaza and report on the situation.

Whilst most staff in an archive agree there's no such thing as a #TypicalDay in an archive, here's a video which gives a snapshot of a typical Collections Week for Warwickshire County Record Office staff!
