Fantastic news. Many congrats

[Abigail Parry @ginpitnancy]

Thank you, so much, for the thoughtful messages.
I’ve been at work all day – still here, in fact, and likely to be for a while – so I haven’t been able to write back, but I will. And I’m thoroughly jazzed to know so many brilliant, kind, generous people. Thank you!

@CarolineBirdUK I am! A radio thing, unless I’m imagining it… my goddaughter gave me your book saying this is the best thing - and she was spot on. It’s a brilliant delight…

[Nick Drake @nickfdrake]

@RonSexsmith Hi Ron, it’s painful to feel, and seem, invisible. When all the spotlights of attention are falling elsewhere. But I listen to your work. We all do. Your audience. We’re here. Your glorious body of work lives in the world. I carry your songs about with me. Thanks. Keeping going!

the idea of a carbon footprint calculator was invented by British Petroleum not to encourage conservation, but to focus consumers' attention on their own emissions and distract their attention from the incomparably greater emissions of the industry itself. https://t.co/sTsVt6pJ23

It gives me vast pleasure to find myself @nickdrake taking my rightful place between two geniuses... oh, hang on...
