Something very 00s about Binface. Would have been the go-to for anyone who put Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in the “religion” section of their new Facebook profile

Despite Donald Trump's dystopian warnings, our family enjoyed a surprisingly wholesome trip in one of America’s poorest districts 👇

Is going on holiday to New York with an almost-toddler a really stupid idea? Here’s my piece for @Telegraph

This excerpt from Bach’s Piano Concerto No. 7 aired in a November 1967 CBC broadcast!

Amazing ✨🤩

*sighs deeply* OK, I’ll try again then, shall I. Have you or have you not been to a Toby Carvery?

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

Looking increasingly like Sean Dyche in these courtroom sketches

The thirtysomething man on the treadmill has just cranked up the speed by 0.5 km/h

@tomough @unherd Congrats!

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

@JohnELewis @Telegraph Ha – perhaps I was a little harsh on it. And thanks! Really enjoyed your piece too

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

One last push for my piece on the great Keith Jarrett for @Telegraph, 50 years and, er, three days since he performed the Koln Concert

@funesdamemorius I haven’t actually heard it! Firing up Spotify now

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

It’s the 50th anniversary of The Koln Concert today, as good a time as any to make the uncontroversial case that Keith Jarrett is a genius

(Special mention to the man – now dead I think – who lived in the woods by my school playing field and would occasionally emerge half-naked to harangue us about how we were complicit in a land grab. Suspect he’d be a tad dismayed by the town today)

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

Full disclosure: I’m from St Ives, which is almost entirely insulated from that strangeness now, but it was a different place in the 90s and even early 00s – more dank crystal shops than Crew stores etc, and far fewer Farrow & Ball fisherman’s cottages

[Orlando Bird @Orlando__Bird]

Lots of excellent stuff in the latest issue of @The_Fence_Mag, but having grown up in Cornwall I particularly enjoyed this by @clive_mart1n about the strangeness of the place. Good to see Trago Mills given serious attention
