@therichgoodwin @intelligence2 @MarinaHyde Aye. That’d be a day trip for Mani, God rest his soul.

@intelligence2 @MarinaHyde That's hardly touring the UK.....!!!!!🤣😬🤦‍♂️

This September, @MarinaHyde tours the UK with a live show on our gloriously chaotic times, marking her new book What A Time To Be Alive! From Trump to Farage, Bezos to the Beckhams...don’t miss her razor-sharp take on it all. 🎟️- intelligencesquared.com/events/marina-…

@lhourahane So sorry to hear that Lawrence. She was a beautiful dog.

Good night and thank you to Millie for 16.5 years of fun-filled adventures. A Top Dog.

@niallcarsonpa A significant slice of my dinner money disappeared into the slot of Aberystwyth Pier’s RT machine during the 80s. The rest I invested in apple Tango and cream doughnuts.

@exQUIZitely I remember it well. There was another called rolling thunder in a similar vane

An average picture that you save on your phone or PC has a size of around 400 kilobytes. It doesn't do anything, it's just a static image. Now divide that by the factor 10, so you drop to 40 kilobytes. That's the size of The Last Ninja, developed by System 3 and published in 1987. I still struggle to comprehend, even in the slightest, how programmers back then did what they did - and the worlds they created with the limitations they had to work with. I was simply blown away by the graphics (isometric on the C64 with such an amazing level of detail - simply gorgeous) and absolutely mesmerized by the kickass sound. What Ben Daglish and Anthony Lees conjured up musically will forever be part of gaming history - an iconic masterpiece. 40 kilobytes man...

@davidyelland @BowenBBC @FrankRGardner @VitalyBBC Thanks for sharing, but your credibility as a media commentator is fatally undermined by the fact you’ve stuck your telly above the mantle piece.

Personal View: BBC journalism is disgracefully maligned by my old newspaper world, by Trump and commercially-focussed idealogues, yet here at home I just watched @BowenBBC on Iran, followed by @FrankRGardner, followed by the wonderful @VitalyBBC from Kyiv…. I was in US last week… let me tell you NO news organisation is as good as this, no journalists as clear and free, the new DG needs to fill the newsroom with confidence and….defiance…. it is time to wave the BBC flag.

@niallcarsonpa Read it last year. Feel free to DM me, though my memory’s fairly atrocious.

Hello book lovers, I’ve just finished the wonderful “My Fathers House” by Joseph O’Connor. I’m confused by one event and I would love someone to follow me for a DM so I can ask without spoiling the book for anyone else.

@lhourahane Hostile bid for Iceland by Sunday

The American Dream or a Nutritionist’s Nightmare? USA Week in Aldi UK…

'My year end reading statistics' (originally for @GuardianBooks) p.s. There's still time to pick up new book Physics for Cats at good bookshops and online tomgauld.com/comic-books-v2

@ChrisMCurtis Feels hugely symbolic

Netflix is about to buy Friends, Batman & Superman, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, The Sopranos and Bugs Bunny. It already owns Roald Dahl. Old Hollywood's IP advantage over the world's biggest streamer is going to be wiped out in a single deal.

@lhourahane It’s the pictures that got small

They know me as Mr. Big around here. BBC Cymru Wales, Central Square, Cardiff

@tomgauld Love it!

1. The mural in progress 2. Sketchbook doodles 3. Charles Foussard who did the actual hard work of painting it

I designed a very tall mural for bdcolomiers.com

The Art of The Deal 1. Give Putin whatever he wants 2. Er, that’s it

@dantyte The municipal recycling centre of broken dreams

Men's mental health session at the tip.

A useful primer for Kathryn Bigelow’s disturbing nuclear thriller, A House of Dynamite, out on Netflix tomorrow. Jacobsen’s book is terrifying. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…

@dantyte Bravo Two Zero, The Guinness Book of Records, Roger’s Profanisaurus and the Cortina 1.6L Haynes Manual

Just discovered Richard Burton carried a book bag with him everywhere he went containing the Complete Works of Shakespeare, the Bible, the Quran and the Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English and that's now how I roll, just perhaps with different books.

@lhourahane Ah, le Centre Pompidou! 🇫🇷

Will we ever see false ceilings again in our lifetimes? I fear not.

@KevinCore Congratulations on The Fort. Outstanding.

@lhourahane Your determination to get to the bottom of this story makes Woodward & Bernstein look like a couple of part-timers.

@cardiffcouncil Thank you.

.@cardiffcouncil why the difference in road repairs times in West Orchard Crescent, Canton for Welsh and English speakers? Was it something we said? (Literally…)

2025 is 50% complete.

@GettyImagesNews @finnbarrw Amazing pics

People watch the sun rise on the summer solstice at Stonehenge on June 20, in Wiltshire, England. On the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun rises in perfect alignment with the Heel Stone and Altar Stone of Stonehenge's 5000-year-old circle.📷: @finnbarrw

@niallcarsonpa @breakingnewsie First Kneecap, now Toxic Goo Lagoon! When will this censorship end? Still got one of their early 7”s on green vinyl.
