[Bookcase Credibility @BCredibility]

Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell face each other like the Federer and Nadal of credibility. Their court is not clipped perfection but a clearing in a forest of understanding. Knowledge spectates on three sides, like curious trees. A chair turns its back. Too much truth perhaps.

@philbuckley5 There’s a few good GDS tales in there, and you can see the thinking behind the GDS slide templates. Well worth a read!

One of the most enjoyable ‘work’ books I’ve read - lots of practical tips, laugh out loud moments, some surprising history, striking visuals, and counterpoints to the usual PowerPoint bashing

Excited to start https://t.co/iLYG88ii5Q with @g_l_daniell to help retail brands extend the pre-recycling life of their products - starting with apparel.

Would love to speak to anyone in retail who is looking into trade-in and resale!

Oh yes I remember finding that substation one genuinely disturbing

[Scarred for Life @ScarredForLife2]

It's day 18 of the Scarred For Life Advent Calendar: watch out for that kite! And that car! And that broken bottle, that electricity substation, that sparkler, the hooded monk by the lake...
It's the golden age of public information films, when everything was out to get you.

This week I feel I’ve really nailed miming bass while a 10 yo belts out Rolling in the Deep. The chorus simply demands the overbite

[BabelColour @StuartHumphryes]

For admirers of Endurance and Sir Ernest Shackleton's trans-antarctic expedition 1914-1917, I have cleaned & enhanced these 107-year-old paget plates taken by Frank Hurley. The last shot is of Shackleton himself. They are all original colour (not colourised).

@philbuckley5 Good work Phil, I trust you also suggested diarising a touch-base on the key learnings

I always had a soft spot for @Paul_Mariner, RIP. Found this from 83-84 when my Saturday afternoons were spent copying pictures out of football annuals #itfc
