Ever wondered how many modes of transport are referenced throughout @ChrisDeBurgh 1989 album “Spark to a Flame”?
Well, thanks to an hour at my computer earlier, you need wonder no more.
You’re welcome.

We're staying at a @TravelodgeUK. As my partner just said: "Travelodge is way better than it used to be. It's even as good as a @premierinn these days." Which is a tag line if ever there was one.

We've got an extended Bank Holiday after @Enterprise gave us this car to travel north and back in. (Tyre Pressure warning flashed on the M1; I only noticed the baldness when I got 150 miles to Yorkshire).
The kids are happy - they're missing school! (Thankfully they're safe too!)

I'm watching the brilliant @tonyblackburn talking about chatbots on @BBCMorningLive as I try to get passed the Virgin Media chatbot to speak to a human. Apparently just saying "grapefruit" or "banana" repeatedly will help.
Let's see in real time...

Thanks to @AlBooth for hosting our fascinating evening with Chris Tarrant @mac_birmingham. So many amazing memories, from ATV Today and TISWAS to Tarrant On TV and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. What a legend!

‘Interviewee’, rather than ‘interviewer’, this evening … talking fun music interviews, life as paddler & the transition from international canoeist to #loving80smusic journalist. With the lovely @AlBooth.
End of an era for this awesome channel - we will miss you, @Notts_TV 😢
