Carol singing at #HarperAdams today. A great end to a busy and enjoyable day.

Open Day at #HarperAdams today so I am at the #Zoology course stand. Come and say hello. After that I am presenting on the #FutureFarmer programme put on by #SchoolforSustainableFoodandFarming

Snow outside. Wasps and ladybirds inside. Something magical wherever I look. That kind of day.

Yesterday I taught a class on Communication. Used the following words to demonstrate use of Podcast software. The students instantly got it - generations joined together by a meme! "We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I"

Ten things that fascinate me: 1. #Botany 2. #Zoology 3. #InvasiveSpecies 4. #SustainableFarming 5. #Islands 6. #Music 7. #Entomology 8. #Poetry 9. #Folklore 10. #Archaeology

Autumn colours here at #HarperAdams this morning. It is week 2 of the term and the new #Zoology and #Entomology students are settling in well.
