Flashback to 2012, when President Barack Obama revealed to Nichelle Nichols that he was a Star Trek fan and that, as a boy, he had a crush on Lieutenant Uhura.

@Ginja_geek I was obsessed with them. I even built a Lego TARDIS to land in them at one point! 🤓

@mattupnorth I only had this one. Don’t think I ever built it properly

Cracking on with the next #LEGO set of the day. This may take a while... #lego6074 #castle #rainyday

@Ginja_geek They were awesome! I had loads of those sets as a kid!

@mattupnorth This is the one I had as a kid. I swear

One down, one to go ... #BritainTrump

@yogapuff67 Which one? 🤓

Star trek movie required tonight, I think.🖖

@yogapuff67 I’m not complaining...

@mattupnorth Erm...

Thursday....

@yogapuff67 So it was you who drove me to the bottle? 🤔😂

@mattupnorth Omg. You went through my mind as I was typing it! 😃👍🍷

Did anyone see the restaurant guy on BBC News earlier today? Look real close 😂

And so it begins... An afternoon well spent! 🤓 #DoctorWho #timelordvictorious

Not just a grim read, but a damning thread on the incompetence of those who're in charge of this country.

@estella_sanchez Well... you do make exceptionally good gin up there so I could be (quite easily) persuaded!

@mattupnorth Move up to Scotland. You’ll fit right in!

I stand by this. Past me was furious while present me despairs. I see no way out of this Tory rule any time soon.

@estella_sanchez Sadly there’s no light on the horizon for those of us south of the border. I just wish people would wake up and see them for what they are...

@mattupnorth They quite literally have gotten away with murder. It’s frightening that we have another 5 years of this crap! Covid19 has taken Nicky Sturgeons eye off IndyRef 2 but she won’t have forgotten! That might be my escape from the Tories

@pinkjockalypse The perfect pick me up!

She's a nice way to combat depression!

@yogapuff67 🥺😭😭😭

@estella_sanchez I like the sound of that very much!!

@mattupnorth I’ll be happy to take a pub lunch in 2021. I’d consider that a win!

Let me tell you about my 2020. On January 8th I fell and broke my wrist. I was just about to go back to work after nearly 3 weeks off over Christmas and New Year. I took a longer holiday because I was still mourning losing my big old Loki. This guy .....

@estella_sanchez Ha ha 2021 better be amazing or else!! 😂

@mattupnorth It’s been surreal to say the least but although I’m weary, I’m lucky. There’s people who are much worse off than me out there. You’re right, staying home is working and it’s the best thing we can do. 2020 is write off man, long live 2021! Heheh. thank you Matt 🙏
