Total bedlam at the #eurotunnel. Booked on the 2.54pm. Been here five hours and still no idea when we will board a train. Nothing to do with new passport arrangements! Few frayed tempers. Chaos.

"THE BIG GREEN BOOKS 500 CLUB"

I've set up a thing where I can regularly send £500 of books to schools who need them.

It costs £1 a week to help out, or whatever you can.

Here's the plan.

If you need a reminder of how important design is, I can send you a photo of me in flared loons, platform soles, a tie-dyed grandad shirt and a Jimi Hendrix hairstyle for your screensaver. My @InPublishing article on newspaper design is here:

So, I want to sell as many books as I possibly can, build a space rocket & own several superyachts. So i'm gonna remind you about some of the spectacular books I have for sale.

You need to buy these books (or at least RT about them) in order for me to fulfil this dream.

Ta.

Great to be back at @thethreelegs tonight where @pierson_sj, Peter, @thom_sands, @castell_lester and @nicola_castell scored an impressive 22 in this week's newsquiz. Can you do better? https://t.co/X9uwzWv3fI
Give it a go and let me know your score.

It is 30 years this year since we moved South. We are now adopted Southerners with diluted accents who no longer keep coal in the bath. But which do we prefer? I wrote this nine years ago and, apart from the beer getting better, it is still largely valid. https://t.co/ATSaxCREFj
