Also at @emconcouk I met Tony Robinson (again) 😅. A real privilege to spend time with him within a group & in the Maid Marian Q&A. Funny & touching when he asks your mate to make sure that you get home safely 🥰😂 (@Tony_Robinson pleased to let you know I did) #maidmarian4ever

Had a lovely day at @emconcouk on sunday. Saw some amazing costumes, had good chats with fans and stars alike. Kris Marshall is an absolute gent. The Maid Marian q and a was hilarious, you wouldn't have thought it was 35 years this year when it first came out 😲

@GlittrOwlTweets It has really cold over at Glenbrook. You could feel the chill from inside, so heck knows how cold it was outside. 🥶

Taken me hours but they are ready. 😮‍💨 Each child in my class will receive an Advent ‘Journal of Joy’. Filled with pockets, envelopes, cards & mini journals. Made from scratch incl. paper dyeing, stencilling, sewing & charm. Aim to reflect & write in it daily & Xmas Eve hang on 🎄

£18 billion spent on building the brand new Elizabeth Line, and because the ticket office was closed today I couldn’t get on a train.

Absolutely mind-boggling that this new line requires a manual boarding ramp and there are seemingly times where there are no staff?

@LittleOwlLeader Heya Ash, please could you save me one please. I'm on angels so I'm be floating around camp :-)

[Char Raftery @charscribbles46]

@Tony_Robinson Hope you have had a lovely birthday so far. Genuinely thought I'd got the date wrong looking at the post, better early than late 🤣🥳 x

These are leaf sheep (Costasiella kuroshimae). they live in the sea grazing on algae

They supplement their diet retaining chloroplasts in algae and use them to photosynthesise light into energy, a process called kleptoplasty
