@blgtylr I recommended this book to Billy Connolly when I worked in a Glasgow bookshop. Hope he liked it too! My only claim to fame 😀

@SketchesbyBoze Alan Garner, especially Elidor also good if you don't already know that one!

[Lucy Berry @LucyBerry08]

@SketchesbyBoze I prefer reading The Dark is Rising in the depths of winter... it's great to read Over Sea Under Stone in summer time - somehow for me, feeling the seasons of these books is important! Hope you enjoy the whole series!

@TheAtlantic @ebruenig It's not actually radical at all...

This is why I don't want to visit the US any time soon. Certainly not with my child

This is an actual ad from the FBI.

@rhiannonlucyc CBeebies is amazing - we are so lucky to have it in this country. You are right - it's all about balance!

@alice_emily Flip flops as the hospital is too warm for slippers and little bags with newborn outfits ready - vest, sleepsuit and hat so that you have lots of changes ready. I was not prepared for the post c-section mucus spews and had to change my wee one about 6x the first night!

@clhubes Written by doctors desperate to charge all parents for parenting advice and probably also medicate toddlers for being toddlers 🤪🤪🤪

[Lucy Berry @LucyBerry08]

@DrPragyaAgarwal Probably rather obvious but has she read Matilda?

@jimsyjampots Think about when you get home - do you have a changing table? We didn't but had emerg c-section and had to buy 1 as couldn't do nappies on floor or bed.Also put little bath on a table as couldn't bend for that. Take recovery v slowly but a short walk each day helps! All the best!

@jennycolgan Think it was @clhubes? 😀

@dtmooreeditor He would be a perfect James Bond though...?

@Ben_Aaronovitch I would say my Aberdeen 2 year old is a bit wee for Innoflate just now... my friend's 2 year old broke his leg trampolining 😱😱

@electra_rhodes I am enjoying this mysterious story so much! Thank you!

Just heard it on an ad but I don't think I'll ever be able to hear the words "now more than ever..." without thinking about Covid lockdowns

[Lucy Berry @LucyBerry08]

@redskyatnight This is what he meant by "big society"

@JenaFriedman Two words: nipple shields - don't be afraid to use them - ignore anyone who tells you not to - but stop using them you are healed up again and less sore. Solidarity

@clhubes Maybe it's just Scotland but people always look at me funny when I talk to my little boy when we are in shops and generally out and about - as if "who are you talking to?!!" Ehh my son - who is also a human being????

I was recently asked what would happen if I used the same equipment I shot planets with to shoot our moon.

Well, this: A 562 megapixel image, featuring one of the most detailed looks at the craters of our moon I've ever done. Zoom in to your heart's content.

@EmilyMandel I loved those books as a child and also loved Alan Garner as others have noted. Also recommend Robin Jarvis - the Wyrd Museum trilogy and the Deptford Mice books. Might be a bit old for him but I also loved the Tales of the Otori by Lian Hearn
