Paperback launch day for QUANTUM OF MENACE! Here's me banging on about it. Small town murder mystery. Q from the James Bond franchise acting as amateur detective. Cryptic clues. Dry humour. What more do you need? Check it out in bookshops/supermarkets. Some options here: geni.us/quantumofmen ...
How shocking! This looks more like the 1950s.
If you love gothic mansions, dark family drama and haunting historical mysteries, #ThornbyManor by Stephanie Bramwell-Lawes is FOR YOU!🕯️
A simmering, peril-laced debut you won’t want to miss.

@elaine61431.bsky.social Don’t usually follow people who have very few posts. But ‘Trump is a madman’ got me in the end. I’m ever the optimist that someone will manage to depose him. Our PM Starmer is an ‘adult in the room’ but still can be cast out very promptly.
I particularly enjoyed Whisper of the Seals!

More zebra or pelican crossings would be great!
I’d like one outside Bramley Baths in #Leeds. That traffic can be so fast that you can’t get children across the street without running.
Councils in Wales have been given new powers to install side road zebra crossings at junctions.
Join Living Streets campaign to bring side road zebras to streets across the UK – we all deserve to cross side streets safely!

The consequences of Trump’s war on climate in 7 charts #Climate
Thank you @alan-matts.bsky.social Finally got to listen to this. I can’t imagine driving a big car eg SUV in a city. I hope York takes up Paris’s idea of trebling parking charges. I love my 6yr old VW e-up and wouldn’t change it for the world! #climate
Oi, Jenrick. MP for Newark — this isn’t The Traitors.
Being an MP isn’t about scheming in the shadows.
If you’ve lost public trust, do the decent thing: resign and trigger a by-election.
Let Newark decide.

Thank you for your follow. I must listen to ‘The Climate Question’ this week although I already know what to think about SUVs. Bit of family urgent business this weekend as Mum (husband’s mum) is ill and she’s 99. We’re doing our best to look after her.
Great ‘The Climate Change’ @BBCWorldService radioprogramme this week. Join @Graihagh jackson and Jordan Dunbar for a ‘cabinet meeting’ extraordinaire! #climate

Very much agree with this. It’s bizarre that TGA has a category for fighting games that it can barely fill with actual new releases every year, but there is no mechanism for honoring either puzzle games or puzzle design. It’s a foundational genre with a booming scene.

Ibi and me proud of our Micro:bit coding success
We had a great time doing #microbit coding at the #Northern #CodeClub meet-up! We’d never met before and really enjoyed making our code produce a flickering candle. Thx to Helen from #CodeClub and Liam of #LeedsLibraries

Roadside small-leaved lime tree
It’s #ProtectOurPlanetDay from stem.org.uk today and I’ve been watching and listening to sessions about trees. Here is a veteran small-leaved lime near my home. I hope it will become an ancient tree in my grandchildren’s life time. #climate
