A terrific visit was enjoyed by all who attended the Chester Archaeological Society visit to the Grosvenor Museum stores. It was a real insight into the behind-the-scenes work of the museum. More details and lots of pix on the blog at https://t.co/MwkQAOfROY

Super visit today to the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight with my friend Julian to enjoy Lord Leverhulme's wildly eclectic and high quality collection. It is like a mini V&A with splendid decorative arts as well as paintings. More on the blog at https://t.co/ttVJpALz09

Ancient Egypt at the Liverpool World Museum @World_Museum was a treat today. There is space for flow of traffic, plenty of exhibits to give a sense of the quality and range of work produced from the Predynastic to Graeco-Roman periods and well explained and presented for all ages

Never thought I'd be the type to set homework, but here I am, drunk with power and a red marker! Really enjoying delving into hieroglyphs once more @World_Museum... frying brains and transliterating inscriptions!
Week 2 of our Introduction to Egyptian Hieroglyphs. The brain is truly frazzled 🤯 More homework to be done this week World Museum, Liverpool

It’s that time of the year again. You need to have Wham’s Chrissy song playing in the background. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2025!
