Thoroughly loved Priyanca D'Souza's talk on intersectionality 😍 feel like it was a talk I could listen to over and over again! @a11yScotland

Really enjoying @upwithebonnet 's talk - loads of great content, but favourite idea so far is avoiding question "jump scares" - being upfront about what and when potentially challenging topics come up in a round of questions, so people can mentally prepare @a11yScotland

Really enjoyed @abbott567 's talk at @a11yScotland - loved hearing Craig set out some definitions like neudivergant vs neurodiversity, and really skillful explanation of legislation - difficult to make that engaging!

Eu, Richa, Martin, Andy, Bev, Charlie, Katherine and Emma all stood and sat around laptops, deep in thought and conversation, looking and pointing at each others screens - but also laughing and smiling, because it's a staged photo!

Today is my first full day of the annual @3RingsCIC Dev and Docs Camp, where we all get together and work on the 3R volunteer management system. Earlier today, we went on a social #geocaching walk, with accompanying lecture on from @scatmandan. 3 geocaches found! #3RDCamp2022

We're now back from the walk, and getting stuck into some code! Over the next 5 days, we'll be working on the Jordan release of 3R, which will be released in May 21st. Already done an accessibility review of one of the new features! @3RingsCIC #3RDCamp2022

New blog post published - 'Reflections on 2021'. I've always loved reading other people's blog posts about their years, so thought I'd do one myself this year. Here's to continued friendships, less chaos and more parakeets in 2022! webdevbev.co.uk/blog/01-2022…

Been having a slightly gloomy week - covid, relationships, burnout - but the wonderful @misterjta SENT ME A MINI CHRISTMAS TREE - oh my days week made, it's the cutest little thing and it came with baubles + lights and a star! I'll be alone this Christmas so very appreciated 🎄💜

I went on a walk to Epping Forest today and took some photos and wrote a blog post - inspired by Sara Maitland's 'Gossip from the Forest', and wrote a blog post about it :) webdevbev.co.uk/blog/10-2021…

Trying to get back into celebrating small wins and achievements, @lara_hogan donut style 🙂 today I took the Web Accessibility Specialist (WAS) exam, which I've been studying for and super, super nervous about for months - still nervous, not got the results yet, but it's done!
