Sunset over #RomneyMarsh on Saturday evening just 2 hours after a deluge of biblical proportions.

Butterfly on 1 November.

@TonyBurke2010 For the record: Eric Bemrose, gravure printer in Liverpool, was part of Murdoch empire. Printed colour sections for newspapers because Wapping presses could at the time, only print b&w. Bemrose, security printer in Derby, was separate company.

Bemrose was owned by Murdoch’s News International. Printed magazines, comics and catalogues by gravure process. Great chapel’s - union meetings at Bemmies was always tough but fair & we got plenty of stick but with tons of humour - brilliant union reps & real trade unionists.

You’ve got to love LinkedIn when it serves up ‘love to see you at the Print Show’ posts two weeks after the show closed #ineffectivemessaging #Oooops

There are nine machines for applying toppings to pizzas at the #ppma show at the NEC this week. Just across from #theprintshow at same venue. Just saying

Tried to research the impact of US tariffs on my phone. The phone crashed and is bricked and the words Don’t Panic appeared on the screen.

Gotta love @garethward’s dry turn of phrase… on the demand for delivering print around London by bike is expected to be for exhibitions he says “The experience may turn out differently” printbusiness.co.uk/pedal-power-to…

Two beaches a couple of weeks apart. One in Southern California 10 days ago, the other in Kent this morning. But which is which and which is better? #bestbeaches

🎶Egrets, I’ve seen a few, but then again🎶 not so many giant egrets on Romney Marsh this am. #RomneyMarsh #Birdspotting

Definitely a three sheep day today on walk with dogs. That’s when the sheep are blown in front of you doing cartwheels because of wind. #romneymarsh

@rorysutherland It is impossible to catch a train from Ashford to St P in time to take the first trains to Brussels/Paris for a day of work. Used to stop at 7.30 ish at Ashford International. Crazy, illogical decision not to restore these services.

I have been making this same point since 2011. A very simple way to reduce the crowds at St Pancras would be to offer a discount to people boarding at Ashford or Ebbsfleet, where there is plenty of room. Cost-conscious Londoners could travel on HS1 to Kent and board there. But that would require the trains to stop in Kent again. Which they churlishly refuse to do. As things stand, they have recreated the worst aspects of air travel on a train. thetimes.com/article/eefd71…

@histon_mike The impossible to replicate in CMYK Miami Pink

@garethward It was only available in one colour though. I'm going for a blue Jag, and you?

Does the rebrand and launch of the Jaguar EV remind anyone else of the arrival of Landa in 2012?

Paper companies and printers disappointed that Orbital has won the #BookerPrize2024 . The book has only 136pp.

Passed electric pylons on the autobahn near Frankfurt today for future electric powered trucks. Will these be known as Trolley Lorries or Pan-tograph-tecnicons??

amid the tall savannah grasses, the predator is on constant watch. There might be a meaty strip or gravy bone on the loose and if there is, this apex predator will be the one finding it. #beagles
