#Greenbelt memories 1. Earnest man onstage with mic: “Anyone had their life changed this weekend?”
Hand in crowd goes up.
“Tell us about it!”
Man in crowd: “I’ve lost my car keys.”
Huge applause.
1994 I think.

@jillwebb2005 @Russcox1808 Oh, but 1983 was a *brilliant* year.

@jillwebb2005 Don’t You Want Me should be the behemoth to beat all else. But with Reward a close second, Ghost Town third.

Saddened to hear of the passing of Allan Ahlberg. He, along with his wife Janet, created such classics as The Jolly Postman. He will be missed.

@WhovianLife The frock coat. Because he’s the Doctor.

The facts behind our work in the Channel.

In 2024, our crews launched 114 times to Channel crossings – that's just 1.2% of our total launches.

Our core purpose is to save lives at sea. Anyone can drown, but no one should.

@Tim_Hugh_Smith @Noirchick1 Oh, I liked it!

[Mike Maddox @MikeMaddox10]

@Supermex13 @Noirchick1 Ouch

@movieguysteve @Noirchick1 Hi Steve. Soo yes, I used to agree with you 100%. But… Oh, it’s grown on me. Really it has.
It’s wonderful.

Watching Department Q on TV. In an ideal world Matthew Goode would be playing #DoctorWho next.

Last night I dreamt I was putting together a hardcore compilation lp called “ We can’t be cool but we can be you” featuring songs about a grumpy Persian cat. Minor Threat, Circle Jerks, Fugazi, Minutemen, loads of great bands.

@oxley8150 Man, I blummin’ love this story.
Well worth a trip to the fabulous Mirador del Rio should life ever take you to Lanzarote itself.

@GodzillaLets Oh, it’s great fun. Hope you enjoy it.

[Mike Maddox @MikeMaddox10]

Triangular box with wings, invented by Silas Conyne in 1902. Possibly the best all round kite there is.
Flying in the warm skies on the hills overlooking the town this week.
