I announced my retirement today. After thirty-nine years, at Oxford, Birkbeck, Keele, the Open University, Hertfordshire and Portsmouth, I’ll be pursuing my extra-curricular interests with gusto from the end of July. Emotional in many different ways. Lots to do before I leave!

My wife Ruth was an avid birder, naturalist, hiker, wilderness canoe tripper and would always rather be going out the door, than in. This pic taken was taken two years ago. Today, she can't walk. #ms #mssucks #lifechanges #carpediem

Mag Bayreuth so gern und fühl mich da so wohl. Fahr anlässlich meines Geburtstags ehrlich lieber dahin als nach Berlin. (Und hätte nie gedacht, dass ich DAS einmal sagen werde. #lifechanges)

Life's been life-y! Stressful work times on top of buying a dream home. Look at my future witchery!
It'll need a little bit of work, but it's so lovvvely. Just will need to paint it something suitably dark soon.

Old photo of me in Deltona, FL, 2017—back when I was a manager, before my disabilities. I keep it to remind myself I was important once. Now, dealing with ESKD & blindness, life is different, but I’m still here. #Throwback #DisabilityAwareness #Blindness #ESKD #LifeChanges #FlashbackFriday

I am still not completely unpacked from the move six-ish months ago, and I have a printout of this that hung on my wall in the old house. Someday it will hang before my eyes again. #sameasiteverwas #truerwords
