For some reason 🤔 we figured it might be worth mentioning that we got a new #Mastodon account just recently.
Give us a follow at social.mcqn.com/@museuminabo… if you're also hanging out on the #Fediverse (& shout if you're curious about is all and want some hints on getting started)

Does anyone know of any drone repair specialists in Liverpool? My Mavic 2 Pro computer says no (well, it says no signal).
Any droners or anyone else can help please? 🚁❌🙏

#FloatToLive -
- Tilt your head back with ears submerged
- Relax and try to control your breathing
- Move your hands to help you stay afloat
- Once you are over the initial shock, call for help or swim to safety
- In an emergency call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard.

I've been asked for a portfolio, which I don't think has happened in over 10 years. So spent the evening putting 10 slides together. If you're interested in talking to me about what I do, I'm #opentowork from June 2nd.
