@SmythsToysUK Do your stores ever answer the phone? I’ve been trying to get through to Bristol Longwell Green all day and it just rings out.

@LeifKendall Awesome.

@LeifKendall How late is the #CopyCon23 gang likely to be at the Lucky Pig next Thurs mate? Would like to pop along but I don't get into Paddington until 9:10pm... but if it's likely to be a late-ish one I can drop stuff at Airbnb and head straight out. 🍻

Doing good? vs Doing no harm
Essential? vs Opportunistic
Enduring? vs Ephemeral
Contagious? vs Isolated
Well-cast? vs Mis-cast
