The actual Wylfa discussion goes:
Rio Tinto (aluminium smelters) - can you build a new nuclear plant before the old one explodes?
Government/BNFL - sure of course
Government/BNFL - ah shit, no, actually it's all fucked *closes nuclear plant, does not build another*
Rio Tinto - well then *fucks off*

I remember laughing in a not entirely healthy way when I went back to the island the first time and saw signs from BNFL everywhere saying 'IT'S FINE, BUT DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ORANGE THAT MIGHT WASH UP, YEAH?'

Lovely surprise this morning to receive an email from an activist who read my recent article on Capenhurst peace camp (doi.org/10.1093/tcbh...) and sent me lots of her personal papers!
Sharing this wonderful letter from the UN Namibia Council, praising the women’s occupation of BNFL in 1985 😍😮

Had an awesome Sal's House pod today from the media floor of the NFL Combine with Josh Reed of Channel 4 and Texans reporter and draft analyst John Harris. We talked a ton of Bills info, including more on McDermott/Beane comments and prospects who they may target. Check it out! youtu.be/vNepesjMiFA

As a young scientist at BNFL in the ‘90’s, we had a color specialist come and advise us on what to wear as “professionals”, they said I was “an autumn”
Turns out #chromamagic selfie mode with new magic auto palette shows I’m a 10R 6/2!
Also clothing choices still v. poor! 🤣

As a child I always wanted to work for BNFL at Sellafield reprocessing spent nuclear fuel rods. Does it show?

I remember having to get to grips with the Companies Act in my first research project for @campaignfoi.bsky.social in 1993. I was trying to work out how ministers controlled BNFL so we could make EIR requests about THORP.
Never been so sure I didn’t want to be a commercial lawyer.

I've probably a few hundred educational slides from BNFL dated 50-60's. If you are interested I could start digitising them (needs doing anyway)
Let me know.

Well in the 70s it was all about wonderful limitless power, never mind the little windscale pile 1 accident. And don't mention the real reason for it all. Safe modern and good at the BNFL visitor centre.

So complicated compared to the stacks used in nuclear sites. BNFL got an action from the EA to do esearch into developing a system for removing Kr-85 from stack discharge. I believe Sellafield still has to report on it?

It’s not an ocean, it’s a busy, narrow and shallow shipping channel.
I used to work for BNFL, you’re preaching to the choir but you’re way off base on this one.

Anyone who can conduct the rite of Ash-Kente with an egg... A force to be reckoned with.
I know Terry Pratchett worked for BNFL in his early career. Is Ash-Kente a reference to a visit to Dungeness, perhaps, where he likely would have been staying in Ashford, Kent?

Very very happy with these pictures,
Exchanged in a carpark of a wake of my boss,
Caught by the Director of Dalton Nuclear Institute and having to agree to joint custody of one,
They look great.

Reminder
Sellafield nuclear site was renamed from Windscale in 1981 by BNFL according to UK Parliament. This change was part of a larger reorganization & rebranding effort aimed at improving the site's public image, tarnished by a series of accidents & incidents, particularly the 1957 Windscale fire
