Enjoyed ‘Humanise - a maker’s guide to building our world’ by Thomas Heathwick which makes you realise what we’ve lost when we stripped decoration from architecture and put up boring, soulless tower blocks which don’t lift the spirits when we see them unlike Canada House, Manchester.

BEG, BORROW OR STEAL a ticket for Singing in the Rain at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester. It’s tremendous fun with a stunningly brilliant cast. We were on the banquettes, which is the front row, and got soaked, but it was totally worth it! The best thing we’ve ever seen there.

The talented actors at the Royal Exchange, Manchester, succeed in holding our attention in Brian Friel’s wordy play Dancing at Lughnasa which reveals how restricted lives were in Ireland in the 1930s.
There’s a great set but best of all were the moments of dancing - wish there’d been more of this.

The Pan African Congress of 1945 is an unlikely subject for drama yet that is what is on at the Royal Exchange now. From seemingly unpromising material playwright Ntombizodwa Nyoni, director Monique Touko & fine actors have worked magic.

We travelled back in time today when walking past #Mellor Church where a gentleman tipped his hat to us when he said good morning. It was charming - and the views from the church over the Peak District and Manchester are beautiful.

It’s a 100 years since the Great Gatsby was published so I thought I’d better make a poster for schools.

Lucky enough to have a front row seat watching a stunning revival of Abigail’s Party at the Royal Exchange. Brilliant acting, some dance fun & a wonderful set. With this intimate theatre-in-the-round you can’t escape being a guest of a hostess you’d love to avoid.

Ouch, a cutting joke about censorship in Turkey:
A journalist behind bars asks a prison guard if he might have some books to read and enquires about a particular novel. “No we don’t have that novel,” comes the reply. “But we do have the author.”

Just over 50,000 people have now been killed in Gaza: 2.1% of the pre-war population of 2.3 million. That’s one person in every 46. The figures come from Gaza’s ministry of health, which is partly run by Hamas, but most international organisations accept them as accurate.
