Should I have spent so many hours this week developing an IPA countdown game? Probably not, but here it is anyway: grbails.shinyapps.io/ipa-countdown/ I tested it out in a seminar last week and it went down a treat, so feel free to use it in any introductory phonetics classes! ⌚️🗣️

@DrPaulFlanagan We can agree on Gary at least 🦍 It was an iconic moment when they brought him out at Wythenshawe Park - saw them again at a tiny venue in Manchester the other week and the stage was too big for him 😢

Not quite the heights of last year’s 45.2k, but I’m nothing if not consistent. Perks of having a long commute 🎧

@grbails Gary is a great tune. Can't stand Sam Fender though- sounds like a Brandon Flowers tribute act to me
