Absolutely bonkers that University of St Andrews & Saints Sport are trying to spin this into a positive news story. The removal of the track is a huge loss for the community!

my camera roll being almost exclusively photos of various old documents can only mean one thing - first archive trip of the academic year !! very glad to have finally got a chance to visit the lovely RAS Library !

The exploration of the 1860 Solar Eclipse Expedition archival materials is back, and this time with some added fire. You can now read a fantastic guest post by Meg exploring the Airy - De Le Rue correspondence via this link: eclipse1860.substack.com/p/departure-di…
