Beautiful and sad. My mum was taken there by her mother in the 1950s to learn how to behave in a nice hotel.

Thank you for asking that question & greetings from Cyprus, Al !

Actually standing on the Republic of Cyprus (“south”) side, looking “north”.

I found my grandparents in an archive, enjoying a sports day circa 1953/4!

Military barriers across the city, but almost always with cat flaps. The numerous & well cared-for feral cats enjoy free-movement. 🐈🐈‍⬛

The Green Line: the buffer zone across the two sides on the island of Cyprus, a fence with barbed wire

The Green Line: the buffer zone across the two sides on the island of Cyprus, where my mother’s family lived in the 1950s, during British colonial times, before the island was divided. Intimate geopolitics in the field.

Geographical quiz-time: where am I?

Extraordinarily worrying. Anti-trans hate really is the gateway drug to fascism.

Très loin des promesses, l’intelligence artificielle est accusée d’augmenter la charge de travail, le stress et le risque de burn-out en entreprise

Visible mending in rainbow colours on a wool jumper

On a balcony up high in the mountains overlooking the Alps & Léman

Lots of dribbly sounds of melting snow at 1100m but I am sitting out in a shirt mending wool. Perfect Sunday in the sun.

The Trojans have entered the group chat.

Mais qu elle est belle la fac de Geneve (Uni Mail)

Isn’t it fun how we ignore all manner of improbable sports then get emotionally over-invested every four years? I was watching “ski alpinisme” last night (gold for Swiss woman!) which seems to reward running straight up mountains for 1 minute in ski boots & being quick taking your skis off & on.

Over 80% of 16 to 24-year-olds would vote to rejoin the EU, ITV poll finds

Why would you pig-headedly ignore the voice of the next generation? Why would you saddle them with debt, shrink the job market and limit their opportunities? It runs counter to everything politics and society should want for them. For all of us. They’re the future.

We are SO MAD that this amazing project didn’t get funded. It got to the last round and then…

“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

Wow.

Et je découvre Suisse-Man, le cousin romand de Croix-Blanche (et qui a lui de vrai pouvoir).

One on left is a black dog and above it the words “Reality”. Below it is “I chased a squirrel” One the right is a black dog and above it says “LinkedIn”. Below it says, Proud to announce that I effectively executed a rapid-response squirrel displacement strategy to mitigate potential yard intrusions. Humbled by the unwavering support of my family and local stakeholders. This experience reinforced the importance of vigilance, ownership, and continuous improvement. Looking forward to scaling this impact in future engagements.
