On Monday, 31st March, the Manchester SIM Hub visited the World Museum Liverpool for a guided tour led by three expert curators: Alan, Wendy, Emma and PhD student Sabrina. Their deep knowledge and enthusiasm brought the museum’s collections to life as we explored Liverpool’s rich heritage in scientific instrumentation, horology, and the astronomy. We even had the opportunity to review some of the artefacts up close during the afternoon session.
Thank you again to the museum team for a superb visit.
Many thanks Sam White

What could be better than a stroll in the warm, autumn sunshine, through the heart of the City, with no cars to bother you, because, thoughtfully, all the roads have been closed to traffic, just to preserve your peace of mind? Indeed, why not march down the centre of the road, and get a once-in-a-lifetime view of the striking buildings on either side? Add in the crowds, who are standing four deep next to the road and cheering you on, and your stately progress verges on the royal!
On Sunday 25th September, Liveryman Dr Alessandro Raimondo exercised his right as a Freeman of the City to take sheep across London Bridge. The weather was fortunately kind, and Alessandro and his wife Clara and son Efrem had a wonderful time. The photo shows Alessandro wearing his Livery Badge.
Was he able to meet and chat with Mistress Bo-Peep who apparently was also there?
