“But what a weak barrier is truth when it stands in the way of an hypothesis.”
Mary Wollstonecraft, in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), argues that present realities cannot defeat the power of an imagined future — that revolutions begin with the imagination. #IWD26

Beautiful morning for a Eucharist near the causeway crossing over to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne 🙏🍞🍷✝️
100% yes !! I’ve just done a rest day 21km in beautiful sunshine. Just listening to the sounds of nature 🙏🏃♀️😊
Rest day 21km round Talkin Tarn. No yellow gate but some standard parking signs 🫣👀🏃♀️
🤦♂️ #NEWEVE
Noooooo 🤨

This afternoon I visited the new Smart Works North East offices in Newcastle City Centre. This organisation does fantastic work helping women back into the workplace 🙏👏
Great to visit The People’s Kitchen in Newcastle today to present a cheque from my Christmas Appeal. Huge thanks to the people and parishes of the Diocese of Newcastle for their generous support of the work that TPK does 🎉🙏👏
Thank you Carl! 🙏🎉
Had a grand bimble in the forest yesterday: Whinlatter #parkrun. My 6th time on that course, doesn’t get any easier (the hills!!) but I managed to be first in my age group which was grand 😄🏃♀️🙏🗻
💕🙏💕
Marking the 12th anniversary of my consecration as a bishop, on February 22nd 2014 in St Peter’s Cathedral, Hamilton-Kirikiriroa in Aotearoa New Zealand. Gratitude today for family, friends and whanau who have supported and encouraged me along the way and especially to the Diocese of Newcastle! 🙏
Rain on plastic.
Cold Tennessee air.
And the architect of chaos watching it all unfold.
Repost for a chance of winning a 4x6 print. I’ll select 40 at random to celebrate the 40th edition of the Barkley Marathons.

Love this 😍
One action, two wins. 💪
Using our badge is a great way to speak out. I wore my badge to an event last week and it resulted in a chat with a runner about what it is to be a green runner. #HowWeSpeakOut
And using a badge as a patch is a brilliant way to extend kit life. #HowWeKitUp
Can't help thinking this is the sort of thing a 12th-century chronicler would record as an unheard-of prodigy, just before something really bad happens www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Happy Birthday! Many people would feast on a Sunday (as Sundays don’t count in the 40 days of Lent). I prefer to be more intentional around things in Lent, not necessarily giving things up but paying attention to things like the environment, kindness and so on 🙏
Ash Wednesday service in Alston this evening. Yes Lent is all about fasting but Alston does feasting too. On a chilly night the tea and cake was fabulous. And yes, I talked about the @spinerace.bsky.social (and lasagne) 🙏🫖🧁
Hard to find the words really 😟
This was also a first outing for my @thegreenrunners.bsky.social badge. A bimble on the Pennine Way seemed like the best way to get the badge out! 🙏💚
Epic day on the Pennine Way! Good recce of the high route 🙏❄️
Pancakes for breakfast! #shrovetuesday 🥞✝️🙏
👏👏👏👏
A pleasure following with y'all as always. Barkley wins again! #bm100
The 2026 Barkley Marathons is over. There are no finishers. #BM100
