@PunterRobin Thank you! 'Long Term Life Partner' was the original term, which I never liked much but sort of stuck in its abbreviated form. Really glad you're enjoying it.
> EVEN BETTER, pretty well everyone has a difficult-to-buy-for movie executive friend, and the FILM/TV ADAPTATION RIGHTS are STILL AVAILABLE from my agent at https://t.co/q668RSSyyx - what better, more unique gift could there be?!? Thank you! (END)
It's that time when people suggest their own stuff as gifts, but this is doubly awkward for me as my last book ('A classic outsider's journey'- @mrneilforsyth; 'Smart & funny'- @JillTwiss) is now out of print after a collision between the publisher and the UK economy. BUT (1/3)
> You can of course pre-load 'The Resurrection of Frederic Debreu' on that Kindle or other e-reader that you're purchasing for the lover of quintessentially-English-books-that-are-nonetheless-set-in-rural-France in your life. On all the e-book platforms. https://t.co/mYQnV4zh7l
@MrTimDunn WELL I don't do as much of this as I used to; still use Hootsuite but not impressed with the way its been going - lots of investment in being able to AI generate auto posted company platitudes about national cancer awareness day etc etc. Personally I'd look elsewhere first.

I love language, me.
Back in 2007 I wrote a thing urging for Charlie Chaplin films to be shown in A&E. I'd upload it to the NHS consultation but I suspect they'd think it was another timewaster, rather than a variant of the @rorysutherland 'mirrors beside the elevator' thing. https://t.co/e1dy6txlyZ
A new fully authorised visual history of @CardiacsBand, A Big Book and a Band and Whole World Window, will be published in January. Details here... https://t.co/vIDyuIcvDA
@AskNationwide hello, at my wits end with the card reader you've sent my son for his flex1. He needs to enter his pin to confirm a simple bank transfer, but reader only accepts 4 digits, and pin you sent is 6 digits. On final try. Pls advise?
