How prolific is my friend the writer Jane Upton. She is fire at the moment with another play opening soon.

come to think about it, I used to live in Long Eaton, so maybe, surely not, whew, the play is about people young in 1987, I was old by then
This is excellent news and a huge deal!
(Here's my explainer on OpenSafely and why it is incredibly cool.)

Great news, thanks
Incidentally it was my aunt who sent me , in California, an Eagle annual every Xmas, along with an airfix model of the coronation coach, and the first Paddington bear book. I took it to school, my teacher was so happy she asked my mum to ask her to supply the school.
They later lived and served in Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, before a final post as ambassador to Papua New Guinea.. Throughout my Aunt has always been seen as a force of nature. Every few years they would pass through Calif en route to DC, good memories. Happy birthday Auntie!
Today my Australian aunt, living near Washington DC, widow of an USA civil servant in diplomatic corps, celebrates her 100th birthday. Their first post after marriage in London, was to Madagascar, where they befriended David Attenborough,he thanked her fo her cooking in his book.
Enough is enough. I have complained to IPSO about the racism of the Daily Mail, after seeing their article online about the Erasmus scheme allowing ‘thousands of Turkish students” to come to the UK. The first sentence refers to a “wave of arrivals from Turkey and North Africa.” Disgraceful
The news about the UK rejoining the Erasmus scheme was the first really good piece of news in the political area for some time. I look forward to the UK playing host to students from all over the continent, including Turkey, and for our students to go there.
Does anyone know of the rumours about a protest in Nottingham tomorrow 10 Nov in the evening about the cuts to university departments in particular music? #askingforafriend
The answer is, for Roku access, is to click the ‘*’ key when program is on,.and choose Subtitles for Replay. (Choosing subtitles on their own gives continuous subtitles)
How do I get the English subtitles to the Russian speech in The Americans on Disney+ when I watched on channel 4, they were automatically there. My Russian is way too rusty to keep up 😀
Thank you to the assistant in @johnlewisretail #nottingham on Friday afternoon who came out of her station as I couldn’t make myself heard, and got me a glass of water so I could take my pills

Thanks to all who have supported me recently with likes and follows. Appreciated
Disaster coming home, struggling to walk up road. A neighbour came, gave me her arm. But I was so worn out, sat down on kerb. She commandeered two lads walking on road who each gave me an arm. two lads are @NFFC players. Just out for a walk before tonight’s U21 match. ❤️#thanks
Thanks. But my lymphoma is so far, very “indolent”. Reasonable chance I will die with it and not of it. Going for my next three monthly blood check and session with excellent haematologist on Thursday. Thanks for your good wishes ❤️
Just had a Covid booster. Not old enough to qualify automatically, my lymphoma makes me officially vulnerable. #thanksNHS
I keep my @EastMidRailway “I have a speech impediment” card by the front door to show to callers who are not known to me. The bloke this morning peered at it, then said: what does it say? I can’t read it without my glasses..#stalemate 😂
*managed to say: I have trouble speaking
This is Labour’s poll tax. Its tuition fees. It is - as Iraq was for Blair - the moral stain that will mark Starmer’s government and the party for years to come. Severely disabled people are going to be starved, isolated and degraded. No Labour MP who backs this will be forgiven.
Met some old friends for lunch at @BarnBerryfields today. Superb food, highly recommended
On welfare cuts, the SDLP asks Keir Starmer “What was the point of getting rid of the Tories if Labour are going to do this?” #PMQs
The Americans would be speaking English today, rather than American, if the French had not come to their aid in 1770s
Bought tickets from your website @scot for a short trip to Glasgow Central. Very disappointed that you expect me to collect paper tickets from a machine. Why not e- tickets? #askingforafriend
On the train today, a middle aged man was mansplaining to a woman that “climate change doesn’t exist “. When he told her that the “ozone layer healed itself” my wife interrupted, told him a few facts. Politely explaining basic science; woman said thanks when she left train
