@OntheTudorTrail @Joanne_Paul_ @sixteenthCgirl @Emma_J_Wells @TracyBorman @MattLewisAuthor Amazing!! I was only thinking this morning (in the shower, as one does...) about how much I would love a podcast about all things Tudor! Thank you!! Looking forward to this!

@muminmakeup @meandorla I’ve been listening to ‘Raw Milk’ by Beth Kirby of @local_milk and find it to be really inspiring! Another great one, though slightly off the business tangent is ‘Desert Island Discs’. Just good stories and inspiring people. Xx

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

@meandorla @local_milk Great idea!! Thank you! I’m slowly starting to set little rituals... I’ll try this one 😊 xx

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

Spent an hour listening to Hashtag Authentic podcast with @local_milk and @meandorla - thank you both so much for being so honest about starting out in business, the challenges of working from home & overcoming your own mind! So inspiring & really really helpful!

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

@meandorla @local_milk Thank you for your reply! I couldn’t agree more! I’ve just started working from home and found the first few weeks really really tough! So good to hear your stories - I’ve been listening to Hashtag authentic all afternoon xx

@Curalate how can my business sign up for or try like2buy, please? Contact sales link on your website leads to a page with no further info.

@jk_rowling how does real estate work in the wizarding world? Are there wizard realtors? Could a witch or wizard buy a muggle house?

@smh Can you confirm large bang heard at 5.05am was lightning/thunder? Appears to have woken a lot of Sydney's North Shore - lots of jumpy people

@AppleSupport CPU running slow on photoshop after 'graphics accelerator stopping' notification. Any ideas how to fix?

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

@UTS_Innovation @mpesce very true ... a cardboard box will usually do the trick.

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

@UTS_Innovation yes, definitely. But imagine how much more confronting news themes could be in AR or VR formats!

[Avalon Sky @avalon_sky_]

@UTS_Innovation @mpesce if the future of news content is immersive, how do we protect society from becoming desensitised? #uts_fos

Bravo https://t.co/4hQqax8cdu! How to explain the Paris attacks to children - https://t.co/IhJTcGMgsk (French).

[Matthew Reilly @Matthew_Reilly]

Dear Paris, the singular "light" you bring to the world -- wisdom, enlightenment, artistry -- remains undimmed. You are in my thoughts.
