@HJoyceGender We’re going through The Boy’s Guide to Growing Up by Phil Wilkinson. Seems good so far.

Lots of great answers to this, & I've read nearly every single one of these books myself - but I phrased poorly, I meant "about" puberty - as in, good books about growing up to be a man; the mental as well as physical changes. (My own kids are grown-up now, asking for a friend)
Helen Joyce@HJoyceGender

Any good book recommendations for boys approaching puberty (with no genderist nonsense, obviously). I know good books for girls, but none for boys - HMU with your faves!

@NABurkinshaw MK is good … pricey but within expectations. We’ve had a few lessons over the years and also been sledging. Sounds stupid but the “snow” is blisteringly cold so make sure to have proper gloves/kit. Also lots to do in surroundings … bowling, crazy golf etc

Since I have people's attention: can anyone advise on the snowdomes in Milton Keynes or Tamworth? I have a very sad little chap who didn't go skiing so I've promised to find something in the summer. Anyone been to either of these and able to offer insights?
Nicola Burkinshaw@NABurkinshaw

So, after the aborted ski trip, I have promised the boy I will take him to a snow dome for a couple of days over the summer. Any experiences of Tamworth or Milton Keynes to share?

I really abhor this trend of walking out when people are speaking. What happened to listening and offering counter points. It’s like sticking your fingers in your ears and shouting “La la la not listening”. People need to grow the fuck up. My children know how to behave better.

@Gabykoppel @duolingo @jk_rowling Our kids school say they should use @duolingo to back up their language learning. And I came across this in my refresher German session. Our youngest is 11! The tone from the story was definitely not about lion tamers.

Shame on you @duolingo: learning German and I came across the sentence "Yes I like Harry Potter but the author is mean". How woke do you have to be to let #trans ideology infect a language lesson? @jk_rowling

Gosh! That was a #TheHitList and a half. All six contestants were fantastic; the other four winners on any other week. But what winners! Incredible. I take my hat off to all of them.

@Madz_Grant They can’t even check into a hotel without an adult. Ludicrous!

And thanks to my many years passed nan for inspiring the purchase; that allowed me the most wonderful evening listening to the most amazing music with her daughter; my mum. What an absolute treat!

Really, all I needed to say was, if you see that @ElkieOfficial is playing anywhere near where you might be able to get to, go and see her sing. You absolutely won’t regret a single minute. May she keep strutting her stuff for many years to come.

Last night I went to see @ElkieOfficial at @RoyalDerngate. I booked the tickets on a whim months ago when I saw she was coming; mainly out of nostalgia that my nan used to sing us Pearl’s A Singer.
