I have managed to revise and write two pages today because a cat claimed me and I couldn’t leave the table. Thank you little Bell.

I started out doing a #History undergraduate degree & have continued to argue for the necessity of adequate historical understandings as my work moved to the #SocialSciences … we cannot properly understand the present, if we do not understand how we got here, as I argue in this piece:

So, I’m particularly pleased to have been elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society … thank you!

I am rejuvenating my Mastodon by posting this photo of my gorgeous royalty cat. His name is Pingpong and he likes to sit and observe humankind.
