Enjoyed cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs. Never knew that the young lady famously photographed by Kurt Hutton on the merry-go-round at Southend’s Kursaal Amusement Park in 1938 was Deakins’ mother, Josephine. @BBCRadio4 #desertislanddiscs

@frankcottrell_b And it's one of the few books where I think the audio book is a must. It had us in stitches.

@frankcottrell_b @johnmilbank3 I thought Silence by Endo was very good, but it was the Samurai that I really loved. Any other recommendations for Endo?

@THORPEPARK any Comms about Hyperia or Nemesis Inferno? They've been shut for sometime, and every other coaster now has stupidly long queues. If they're not opening we don't want to hang around.

@MadsDavies It was fantastic wasn't it.
I took the kids a few weeks ago and they loved it. I was always fascinated by them.

You're doing God's work... well sort of.
