@Fleurfox Yes! Sitting on my little balcony in Southend listening to The War of the Worlds, bright and clear - and green!

Overwhelmed with pride that my friend Georgie has a researcher credit for #BBCEarthAsia 🥰 We've been telling her since she was 16 that we'd see her name in a big BBC production one day and she did it way sooner than we expected, amazing, can't wait to watch it!

Just bought a swanky new oven after 13+ years and have successfully burnt/cremated my last 3 meals 😆 Now sitting on a stool in my kitchen like my nan used to, watching my dinner through the door - wish me luck for tomorrow's roast 🤣

About 2000 people enjoyed our little passion project, Big Biology Day, today. The only complaint was that it's not on for two days (or more) 😵 So grateful to everyone who enjoyed it with us & for those who help keep it free to attend. Sleeping for a day now ☺️

@anon_opin I feel this! Decades of tickets have been dropped into a big bowl of memories and the last few years is sheets of A4 e-ticket prints 😆

Magnificent to see the #Aurora from my light-polluted garden again, but I can't ever shake off #DayOfTheTriffids so please remember my address when you wake up, peacefully slumbering friends..?

Ooh my tacky swans are looking lovely, must hunt down some more... #whitefriars

Listening to a book set in the arctic and it's annoying me NO END that when a cache is mentioned (frequently in this setting) the narrator *mostly* pronounces it as 'cashay' but only every 20 times or so, correctly, as 'cash'. Genuinely feeling taunted 😆

@DraculaActual @NikiD714 Leonardo DiCaprio's eternally under 25 girlfriends?

Is #knitting socks and watching #BelowDeck really a weekend plan? Yes, yes it is...

@MSEHospitals Well deserved Josh, good luck...and good luck running the awards on the night too!

[Amanda Burton @Moonspoon]

@IamHappyToast It's beautiful, the finishing touches really make it special!

[Amanda Burton @Moonspoon]

@fesshole Utterly baffled by this. You only get to punch if the yellow car is also a Mini, *and* you say 'banana car!' first *and* the punchee isn't driving at the time.

@butwhatifitsall Please note also his attempt to fit the entirely different events in Southend last night to fit his narrative, despicable.

[Amanda Burton @Moonspoon]

@mariannaspring Thank you for what you do Marianna - I watched the entirely different issues in Southend last night inevitably get moulded to fit a particular narrative with dismay - we don't want to see any of it but it's imperative that there is accurate and impartial reporting on motives.

@davidbowie_news Oh my, I miss him...

It's so good for imposter syndrome to get shoved out of your comfort zone at work 💪 Someone asked my advice on something that's not my bag and I got that old, exciting danger buzz - let's work it out together. It's been a while and it was a great feeling 😁

This #OpeningCeremony feels longer than election night.
