It feels weird to be at #National24 and not have an exploding Twitter feed. Another thing M*sk has ruined.

Libraries being quiet places is such a prevailing myth. It's not until you visit one later in life that you realise they a cross between a day care centre and operation desert storm between boomers and the communal computer keyboards

AI is an imminent threat to the livelihood of writers. Requesting compensation is not enough. AI should be banned in the creative industries.

Enjoying the sights of autumn while up on the roof cleaning gutters…..
The changing colours of leaves
The birds gathering material for nests
Fruit ripening on trees
The next door neighbour hanging out his laundry stark naked
I’d have closed my eyes…but needed to balance!

At supermarket…
10yo kid declares “I know the Easter Bunny isn’t real and I know Santa isn’t real.”
I spin round and gasp “What do you mean Santa isn’t real?!?”
Kid is gobsmacked while his parents collapse with laughter.
Cruel, but worth it just for the look on his face!

Not so sure about the "professional" in this professional association invoice!
And yes it's genuine.
