Did you know in the 19th century it was considered improper for women to play the violin? Due to its similarity to the female shape it was considered *whispers* masturbatory. Not to mention the vigorous arm movements and facial expressions…. https://t.co/LdWHPlIzzH

Join us for a unique opera! Funded by @ahrcpress for the #FromNoahToNow project @UniOfHull, this *free* event aims to raise awareness about flooding.

Had a lovely return to LaCuna at the weekend with @grazykoala. Such a lovely venue and audience. They’d even framed our autographs from last time!

My bed buddy. Taking liberties she is. Stole my pillow. She’s now snoring. But goodness me she’s adorable

I’ve apparently reached the age where teenagers instinctively try to help me with technology. 🫣😫😳
