[hey, i am adorable. @weiyikes]

The French title of "March of the Penguins" was "March of the Emperor," which led to perhaps my favorite commercial of all time. If you've never seen it, I am begging you: do yourself the kindness of watching this glorious piece of advertising:

"It's made explaining our identity so much simpler – you can say it in a sentence, and show it in a second". We've spoken to @Duncan5mith and @DanielAlcorn about @Bristol_Beacon's new website launch, our partnership & lots of other great stuff 👇

In celebration of my discovery that @NutellaGlobal have a 100% sustainable & traceable #PalmOil supply chain and are named No.1 global retailer by @WWF for their efforts, I have eaten the whole jar. 😋 Just doing my bit. #COP26

At @Bristol_Beacon HQ listening to @Duncan5mith and Eva from @BMusic_Ltd talk being Digital Change Champions at @amadigital #amaconference - and they certainly know their onions! 👏 👏 👏

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

@TallgirlonaBike @amadigital @LouiseM_BMT @Bristol_Beacon Thanks so much Sarah 🙏 So glad you enjoyed the session.

I still cite your presentation on @LivEveryPlay reopening. I wish we were brave enough to drive a digger into the wall like you guys did 🚜

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

@amadigital @LouiseM_BMT @Bristol_Beacon Thanks for having us! It was great to talk about our stories. Loving the #AMAConference so far. Just about to do some re-watching over lunch.

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

@andyb_briz @Bristol_Beacon @BMusic_Ltd @amadigital IMO everyone at @Bristol_Beacon and @BMusic_Ltd is a champion 🤩

Thanks for tuning in!

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

@Alex_Rimell28 @amadigital @Bristol_Beacon Thanks for joining us Alex, really glad you enjoyed the talk. So much good stuff in the #AMAConference this year!

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

Starting my day with a bit of disco ball therapy. Nothing brings more joy than when this thing lights up the garden with a thousand tiny beads of light. ✨☀️🕺

Looking forward to chatting about digital change later this morning!

I’m 17 again with @steve_lamacq playing @BlocParty’s ‘A Weekend in the City’ in full @BBC6Music. Haven’t heard this for a decade, what have I been doing?!

Memories of playing it 3x in a row so I knew the new tunes before their gig @CambridgeCornEx. Still one of my top gigs.

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

1st rule of ‘How to be a digital change champion’ - be less digital 😆

Currently prepping for my @amadigital #AMAConf session talking about @Bristol_Beacon & @BMusic_Ltd with the classic pen, paper, scissors approach.

Loads of great talks this year 👇

Pure musical joy on the streets of #Knowle. #SMOOSH last week with @Paraorchestra @Bristol_Beacon looked like so much fun! 🤩

[Paraorchestra @Paraorchestra]

We're still basking in the joy of #SMOOSH last week & are incredibly proud of it ❤️ It was down to a lot of hard work from the team and a whole raft of freelancers, contractors, and volunteers so we’d like to say a huge THANK YOU🙏to this brilliant bunch:

@SarahR_Brizzle @amadigital @Bristol_Beacon @BMusic_Ltd You’re too kind Sarah. I don’t even have TikTok. Drastically under qualified.

[Duncan Smith @Duncan5mith]

Ringing ears, broken voice and half a pint of Thatchers down my face - the things I used to hate about live music suddenly feel like the best thing in the world. Thanks @idlesband. That was class.
