What on earth am I supposed to do with a QR code that is posted online or emailed me? Scan it with my second phone? Just share the link!

How do you find out youโre decent at this?
Am I going to work being a headteacher every day when actually I have an untapped talent as one half of a double luge team?
Weโll never know.

One of my favourite nights of the year. A shame we had clouds so no planets visible in the sky but some super pictures and science stories from our friends at RAS ๐ช
Well, the weather scuppered us for our annual astronomy evening but we were treated to a wonderful series of presentations and photos from the Reading Astronomerโs Society - still inspiring students and parents alike! #MECEScience ๐ช

One of my favourite questions of the series appears in tonightโs #OnlyConnect - Iโd better not tell you the whole thing, but it starts โA village in Norway, annually.โ
And if you can get it from that, Iโll see you next series!

Fantastic evening @HenleyLitFest in the company of @HallieRubenhold discussing the themes in her new book - the crimes of Dr Crippens (and Ethel!) and more importantly the rewriting of the story History has held of his victim, Belle. Very excited to start reading!

Lastly for today @HenleyLitFest the wonderful Michael Palin & a highlights tour of his trip to Venezuela-a country of extremes in so many ways. An evening filled with insights & anecdotes from his travels & how the Fish Slapping dance is still making people laugh to this day!
