    Matt Hancock repeatedly saying “bubble” reminds me of Rowan Atkinson’s “Bob” in Blackadder. Cheered me up no end.

    Our downstairs neighbours are stuck in France, so we’re watering their plants and occasionally using a few of their utilities. Today I discovered that if you punch random buttons on their inscrutable microwave, the word “child” displays and it locks up. Neat!

    Still alive and kicking, Frank Barrie! One of the greatest Actors this country has ever produced. Was privileged to work a little with him in rep at the Bristol Old Vic in the ‘60’s. His range is extraordinary. Tv and films of course. But see him at home in Theatre, if you can.

    The nice people who host my sound effects libraries are having a summer sale: all my stuff is 35% off at the moment. Go here to see what's on offer.

    This image has been doing the rounds. This is not the DuVernay test. This is a test me & created, & was published in in 2016. Part of anti-racism is not plagiarising Black people’s work, & giving Black people their dues. Please RT.

    UK friends, if you missed it the first time around, now’s your chance to catch the whole first series of Black Books. Tonight on C4 from 11.05. With Dylan Moran, Bill Bailey and Tamsin Greig. Mad, surreal and very, very funny.

    Missing some Day celebrations? Here's an audio mix that might help: starts with 18 Spitfires and 6 Hurricanes starting up, follows on with massed Spitfire fly-over, BBMF, C47s, military bands, mass RAF fly-pass & ends with fireworks. Enjoy.

    So far with my new 3D printer I have made a model of a small dog, a box, a piggy bank, extension feet for the dish rack, something that Andrea wants for sieving things and some bits for a second order Ambisonic microphone.

    If everyone who is grateful for NHS staff right now followed and retweeted, we would reach a million by midnight. It will take just two seconds to do, and you can help us share important information that could help save lives.

    This arrived yesterday, so I’m going to use enforced free time to learn how to use it properly.

    Spotted this display at JFK. Wonder how long before we can buy Boris Chocolate at Heathrow

    Had a lovely first days rehearsal with this. Beautiful play, cracking team and fantastic cast. If you love a bit of theatre get those tickets booked. Very reasonable prices! 😊♥️🎭

    If you have been grateful for the NHS this year, please give us a follow and a RT. It will take just two seconds to do, but the more followers we have, the more we can spread some much needed joy for NHS staff this Christmas.
