Reading Tom Sharpe's Wilt. It's hysterical, especially the section when the police pull their grim discovery from the bore hole and the academic staff do a running commentary. Like everywhere I have taught.
I have no interest in who said what to whom in the Royal family. It is not news, it is not fact, it is opinion and opinion is the scourge of modern media. It is simply, content. Just like this. Fleeting rubbish.
I had a will at 25. The fact that so many people neglect to do a will is worrying bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn8n…
I do miss Clement Freud who I used to listen to on #justaminute in the early nineties. Four decades later I do love listening to the episodes where Nicholas Parsons was still the chairman on @BBCSounds
Watched 'I Am Legend' last night. The Will Smith version, and laying the book aside, it's a good film. The ending is a little rushed but for a film that comes in around 90 minutes it packs a punch. I believe the sequel is still being developed.
Harry and Megan returning to the UK is not news. It's just speculation and incredibly lazy journalism.
There should always be an investigation before the witch hunt. Will we ever learn? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j1…
#therapture novel was part of my PhD and though it was always destined to be adapted I always had problems with how (a) it portrayed disability; (b) the working class, and; (c) the middle class saviour complex. I hope the adaptation overcame this.
Just watched the first episode of #anndroid by @Sarah_Kendall and Diane Morgan, and it is a great piece of writing and acting. Deserves to be a hit with viewers #suesuesue
I wrote a novel about this, it was part of my PhD but it is yet to be published. I get my non fiction published but speculative fiction seems too close to the bone bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czx5… #climatechange #author
I really enjoyed Mike Myers The Pentaverate. I know it bombed but frankly I thought it was utterly bizarre in that wondrous way #pentaverate
Do councillors actually canvas anymore or do they expect you to do all the work? If that is the case, then they will expect you to do all the work for the next four years #saddleworth #localelections
This is awful that @networkrail has such disregard for a nesting site. Spread it wide everyone #networkfail #rspb #swifts #protectnature
So happy that #artemisII crew are back safe. We now need to make the next step into space. We could go so far in the next 50 years.
If Trump uses nuclear bombs on Iran, what stops Putin using them on Ukraine? #nuclearwar
