(a selection of post cleaning photos) , overall by removing 15+ years of settled dust from the boats surface with soft brushes, musuem vac and smoke sponges, the vibrant colour of the oak log boat was revealed, and has allowed better visibility for cut marks

Hey @LivUniResults Anyone need a free desk chair? @LivUni how can you justify sending perfectly good chairs to landfill? This is wasteful and environmentally irresponsible of the university! 😡#pollution #Liverpool #landfill #environmentaloffenses

So a quick Google has found these chairs sell for around £90 each. I honestly can't understand why they were not resold, given to another department or donated. The university has told us due to covid we have less for Reaserch allowance, yet they are throwing away 💷💷 😢

Hey @LivUni wasn't the whole point of paving the path to prevent further erosion? Its been over a month and we still can't use it despite it being completed ... Now we just have a new worn path... Great job! #pointless #sarcasm #whatawaste #mad #Anoyed

Have you ever wondered how future archaeologists might look back at us? #OnThisDay in 1962, Monitor gave us an eerie look.

What working at home has taught me: 1 People walking in & out of kitchen is distracting 2 My 22y old house mate doesn't understand hand washing at all! He washes hands in kitchen -> uses dirty kitchen rag to dry & doesn't see why this is a problem😰 #workingfromhome #phdpandemic
