I'm decluttering college notes. I don't know why I am keeping notes from my translation MA but I have managed to whittle down my main MA notes from 3 folders into 1, to be reassessed later. Glad to be rid of them. Next!

I did the same wirh BA notes earlier this year. But that cull did not include xl8 module notes.
All were in a nice box beside my desk (demoted from their original shelf space), mostly ignored.

It's amazing how much we still hang on to even when we don't need it.

Happy #WorldWaterDay! Fetch yourself a big glass of the good stuff and take a look at the watery wonder which is Hamonshu (1903), a Japanese book of wave and ripple designs: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/hamonshu-a-japanese-book-of-wave-and-ripple-designs-1903

Nice In Memorium segment last night in The Oscars.

Special attention given to Rob Reiner (and his wife), Robert Redford and Diane Keaton.

Good to see the rather hateful late Brigitte Bardot did not get on the, quite long, list, not that I saw anyway (hope her beloved far right in France didn't do well in the local elections yesterday - edit!)

The Oscars set was quite nice actually.

Deserving best actress and best actor winners (among others).

Congrats to France even if we lost the 6 nations to them (🇮🇪 still won the triple crown so didn't come away with nothing). Nailbiting stuff last night! 🇫🇷🏉
LinkedIn notifying me of my supposed posting activity when I am not actually active on it (apart from slightly altering my title last week and liking or supporting the occasional post, mostly anti-ai posts) but not notifying me of connection invites (welcome or unwelcome, like the unwelcome one I rejected last week entirely because they worked with an ai translation & localisation platform with which I do not want to associate). Another day, another example of LI's madness.

And well done Italy!
Well Scotland really ploughed through France! Ireland should be worried for next week. It was a brilliant try-fest!

I posted this a few weeks ago for fensterfreitag. Failed 🏉 museum (and white elephant many would dare to say).

Now going to be Ireland's first Women's Museum. Good to see it put to some good, meaningful use!

Nice announcement too coming up to the 8th of March.

A science museum would also have been a very good idea, but a women's museum is just better, as we don't have one yet.

Good luck tonight to our 🇮🇪 🏉 team playing 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. We're on a roll!
