Just a timely reminder, folks, that the OISF takes place between the 3rd and the 9th of September this year – and it’s all on-line and free-to-view!
There’s going to be…..
History and archaeology and marine mammals and stories in stone and other kinds of stories, too, and foraging and Energy with a capital E and sheep and big science stuff and ships and fish ( yes, that’s ships and fish, not fish and chips!) and virtual workshops and otters and puffins and Genes with a ‘g’ not a ‘j’ …and…and…and….
Have a look for yourself! Never mind food for thought – it’s a virtual feast for thought!
