I’m in Terana this week, the capital of Albania. This is my third visit in recent years, and I highly recommend Tirana if you are looking for somewhere different and interesting to visit. www.visit-terana.com #Terana #Albania.

If you, like me, are interested in the continuing regeneration of Manchester, you would have enjoyed the talk last night by Ian Simpson and Rachel Haugh, architects of much of the city’s changing skyline. @simpsonhaugh.bsky.social For more events: www.manlitphil.ac.uk #Manchester #architecture

I think these four actors are very talented. I saw them perform last night at the Becket Theatre in Trinity College Dublin. Four seriously good performances. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @tcddublin.bsky.social @tcdeconomics.bsky.social @tcdclassics.bsky.social #acting #Dublin #BecketTheatre #BridgingTheGapTheatre 🎭

Saw this lunchtime play today at Bewleys Cafe Theatre. Worth catching if you can! #BewleysCafeTheatre #GraftonStreet #Dublin 🎭

A day in the British Museum in London today. So much to see. Much enjoyed it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @britishmuseum.bsky.social #BritishMuseum #Lobdon

We're new here, but we've been in Manchester for almost 250 years! Our event programme explores what we’re all talking about and thinking about today. Everyone’s welcome, we love hearing different voices, stories and opinions. Hope to see you soon! www.manlitphil.ac.uk/events/

Another packed house last night for @mcrlitphil.bsky.social at Friends Meeting House, hearing Jamie Coath speak in such expert detail about the restoration and renewal of our much loved Manchester Old Town Hall. More info: www.manlitphil.ac.uk #Manchester #heritage

Tirana is well worth a visit. I’m much enjoying a week in the warm spring weather, and friendly Albanian welcome. #Tirana #Albania 🇦🇱

So very true Jon!

Genuinely surprised Tirana is not more popular as a city break location. Weather is warm, cafe and restaurant culture is amazing, it’s pleasant to walk through, and reasonably priced.

If, like me, you’re interested in Alan Turing, you would have appreciated listening this lunchtime to author and mathematician, Jonathan Swinton, speak about his book at the House of Books and Friends. Info on book: www.manturing.net #Manchester #Turing #books 📚 @jonathan229.bsky.social

I’ve just ordered in person a difficult to find book at @urmstonbooks.bsky.social 📚 And had a (very reasonably priced!) coffee! ☕️ A nicer experience than Amazon, and great service! #Urmston #books #Trafford

@katemcgeevor.bsky.social, CEO of the Stretford Public Hall gave an excellent report on the progress that brilliant community resource has made. Speaking to the Manchester Victorian Society AGM Kate outlined a great future. More info: www.stretfordpublichall.org..uk @stretford.bsky.social #Stretford

Delighted to see a full house last night at the Manchester Lit and Phil to hear @jonathschofield.bsky.social speak about an Imagined Manchester. I much enjoyed it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ www.manlitphil.ac.uk #Manchester

Looking forward to visiting Tirana again in March! #VisitTirana #Tirana #Albania @postalbania.bsky.social @alblux.bsky.social

Fellow graduates of Trinity College Dublin might be interested to know (if they don’t already) that there is a pub in the centre of Rome called The Trinity College! I paid it a visit! www.trinity-rome.com #TrinityCollege @tcdclassics.bsky.social @tcddublin.bsky.social @tcdphilosophy.bsky.social

I can’t ever recall seeing so many people obviously enjoying an art exhibition as I did today at Sheffield’s Weston Park Museum. People laughing with sheer enjoyment and recognition at the art work (and words) of @petemckee.bsky.social Wonderful! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @visitsheffield.bsky.social #Sheffield #art

Having a lovely weekend in a sunny Rome with my son Louis! #Rome #Italy
