There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed...

But you just move the hands upon the clock
You throw coins in the wishing well
For us
You just move your hands upon the wall'

Happy Birthday to the great John Wyndham (born this day, July 10th, in 1903), author of classic SF horror novels such as “The Day of the Triffids” and “The Midwich Cuckoos.”

“Welles co-wrote, produced, directed and starred in his first film, Citizen Kane (1941)... He went on to make The Third Man (1949), in which he also played the lead, A Touch of Evil (1958) and A Man for All Seasons (1966), among many other film and stage productions”

[Avery Garrett @habitableattic]

A surprise to both Carol Reed & Fred Zimmerman finding out it was Welles actually directed ‘The Third Man’ & ‘A Man for all seasons’

@thameswater Thanks Isabelle. A friend got in touch for me

[Avery Garrett @habitableattic]

What’s going on @thameswater ? Weeks of low pressure and cold showers.

When I go to report it the website says use WhatsApp.

Why isn’t there an internet form to make a report? I don’t use WhatsApp

@McDonaldsUK I keep posting and still no response from you. In the meantime I’m inundated with scammers using your logo. What does it take @McDonaldsUK to resolve a non-arriving burger issue? I’ve tried following you and that doesn’t seem to make any difference

[Avery Garrett @habitableattic]

@McDonaldsUK So, no help from @McDonaldsUK but I’m getting replies from more Mandalorians (aka fraudsters) than Jabba the Hut when he put a price on Han Solo!

Maybe Leia’s more a @KFC_UKI girl?
