Just published an OA paper with @lisa_nieth on the Aveiro Creative Science Park and regional strategic learning processes where we look at how knowledge processes change as strategy tangibility changes from a future opportunity to messy implementation tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
This is Leanne. We’re having a small private funeral next week (though Theo and I are already planning an epic memorial event for ‘after the germs have gone’). If anyone would like to donate to charity in Paul’s memory, I’ve set up this JustGiving page. justgiving.com/team/PaulBenn…
This is Paul’s wife, Leanne. Paul passed away yesterday. It was entirely unexpected but peaceful, in his sleep. We will miss him horribly.
We’ve been in lockdown for fifty days now and getting our daily exercize has meant that for the first time, the boy has managed to run 5km without walking. Very proud of him hitting this milestone, and with today’s brilliant Whitley Weather, he enjoyed celebrating at the end!

People who voted for a clown to drive us over the cliffs to disaster surprised when a clown drives us over the cliffs to disaster.

Hoera, negatief stroomverbruik over april! Komende woensdag meer in #psov over de energietransitie #Overijssel
A total contrast of weather today that proves my saying that the coast is somewhere where whatever the previous days weather was, it can always be 10degrees... good for the average speed though because it was too grim to really stop! Loved the little farm at Shiremoor!
Out for permitted exercise with Martha this morning - headed along to Souter Park and Churchill playing fields. Had a very quick chat with a distanced police whilst catching our breath. Lovely weather for impromptu frisbee game with gold dog handbag!
Slightly different route today: the paths south of the Murton road are still open to take you through to New York, then down through Chirton, past a gated Camp Terrace, to the Boating Lake, Simpson Street and home!
I’ve really been enjoying the mandalorian, mainly because of its classic 1970s atmosphere. Apart from the classic films IV-VI I’ve not seen any other Star Wars, except half of the phantom menace when I gave up exasperated. So any advice on where to get back into the material? – at Whitley Bay, England
Many thanks to all @WelshEcon @FrannysTash @tomchadwin @DaveClark_AFP @rpkirkman @courtneyist @Froettmaning @Father_Tony. Lots of love for Rogue One so we'll try that one over the weekend, and then Solo. Maybe I'll do some more research before i dive any further into the genre!

My thoughts on how and why the myth of Britain alone was created on VE-Day and why 8 May was barely noted in the UK compared to D-Day, and above all Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain and the Blitz. @kingscollegeLon @kingshistory @kingscbh newstatesman.com/politics/uk…
It clouded over later on today so we headed over to the beach to try something more educational and look at cliffs and dunes along the coast towards tynemouth

This is a brilliant idea!
Difficult to imagine cafes and bars re-opening on Front Street while social distancing rules apply. Perhaps they should convert Front Street into a pedestrian zone with tables just for the summer #nocars
