ALT Screenshot of tweet saying "It's just one of those weeks" I tell myself, having picked a career that does not seem to have the other type of week.
So proud of our fantastic team of staff and volunteers who collaborated to make this beautiful, family friendly interpretation @BlicklingNT #MustSee
Fantastic bug trail & insect info @BlicklingNT where the house team have used our innovative microwasp and pheromone project (targeting webbing clothes moth) to engage with visitors about #IPM & insects in historic houses. Cleverly and beautifully done. 1/2

That’s interesting, about 20 years ago I found some pot boilers at Itteringham too! I suspect @CuratorMeg would like to record where you turned them up.
