@MarinaHyde I asked for this as a birthday present last year on your recommendation and loved it precisely as much as you would have wished! What a good book and what a fine and funny man.

Hello! On March 8th I am talking on stage to the brilliant Owain Mulligan, whose book about his Iraq War tour is - somehow - completely hilarious. The whole thing is in aid of the wonderful charity War Child, and it will be FUN if you feel like coming along. Details here fane.co.uk/owain-mulligan

Today started with someone threatening to beat me up on the train and ended with a cheerful interaction about football scores and horses as I waited for fish and chips. Been quite the day.

On the phone, and caller said, "well, it's not rocket silence". Not what? "rocket silence" The phrase is, "rocket science". <actually laughs!>"No, it's rocket silence. Rockets are loud, and it'd be very difficult to silence them. That's what it means." So...is it *me* that's mad

@sacha_coward Alright but what if we tell you afterwards? Or is that just as bad / worse (because retrospective cringe…?) or -
We need an etiquette guide, basically.

@benjcartlidge @GianmarcoSoresi It’s more ‘taaaaaahn’ (a born Londoner writes). 💁🏻♂️😁

In A&E having gashed my head on an awning. I am FUCKING SICK of everything being designed for people under six foot. A doctor is going to waste time examining and stitching me just because things at street level are bloody dangerous.
