I finished university without ever coming in contact with a computer.
The closest I came was using a word processor to type up a couple of projects.

Perfect! Ideally, you'll need 2 hours 😆

It's a great exhibition. We loved it 😊❤️

I saw this at the Tim Burton exhibition at the Design Museum, and it reminded me of some of your artwork 😊❤️

It really is great. A mix of biography, social history, and quite detailed bits about cell biology and clinical trials. All researched indepth and written in a very readable way.

I only read two books in January... but they were both good (especially Henrietta Lacks)

R - (The) Real Tuesday Weld
A - A Formal Horse
C - Clinic
H - Hope of the States
E - Electric Soft Parade
L - (The) Lemon Twigs

Having a good at sketching... ✍️🚪😊

That looks lovely! ❤️
Last time we had a power cut, we had a candle lit meal (luckily gas hob so could still cook!) with a good bottle of wine 🍷
I was disappointed when the power came back on 🙄🤣

Thanks! I'd rather go straight in with James 😆

Having loved The Trees definitely want to read this.
I've never read Tom Sawyer / Huckleberry Finn. Have you, and if so, do you think it's worth reading those first? 😆

Yup! I still pretty much know every word 😆♥️

Most of the rest were "Ella sings..." (Cole Porter / Rodgers and Hart etc), a few Beatles, some Simon and Garfunkel, Peggy Lee, and (bizarrely, I now think), 10CC - How Dare You 😆

One of my Dad's few (well, one of 30 or so) "non-classical" albums when I was growing up was Moody Blues Greatest Hits.
I therefore have a deep-set affection for them 😊♥️

Followed thanks to this 😆♥️
Top song 💕

Vinyl night...
So far: Scalping, Squid, and Teeth of the Sea.

*Squid could rename themselves Tentacles of the Sea 😆

Same as it ever was... ❤️

Spotted a typo on this underground poster for your books today... 😳😘

Not Cruel Summer then? 😉😆

Ooh, exciting! 😊
We haven't bought your new album yet as we want to come and visit your Sutton shop to buy it 😆
Do you have regular days when you tend to be there? xx

Aww. I'm sure you'll manage 😘😆

New Year motivational post:

Every day, try to do at least one thing which makes someone else's life a little better or easier.

Also, don't be a dick 😆

Top 5 books read this year (out of a measly 20!) - in order of reading...
1) A Terrible Kindness - Jo Browning Wroe
2) The Echo Chamber - John Boyne
3) The Mercies - Kiran Millwood Hargrave
4) Looking for Jane - Heather Marshall
5) Heartburn - Nora Ephron

Yay! I was no 1000! 😁❤️😆

... but you're our fucking dickhead 😘😆❤️

Wow! I've just done a test run on this - brilliant!! Thanks😁

Fab! I love that kind of mix. I'll add it to the long TBR list 🙄😳😁

Is it based on any real-life historical events or purely fiction?
Either way, it sounds interesting.

I donate to Wiki because I use it so much, and because I appreciate a (mostly) reliable source of information.
Now I've seen this, I'm even more keen to keep them going 😳❤️
