Cold enough for my long black coat. Love it, it's a long flowing piece of solid, beautifully tailored Drama

But my late colleague Jamie Freeman used to call it my Sherlock coat, and it just reminds me of him every time I get it out of storage for winter 🥺

Miss you mate 💔 🕯️

Ha!

Things I realised trying to play my cello

Song of Angry Men is a remix of Glory Allelujah.

Just hum bits of them interspersed with each other a few times

Et voila mes amis!

Screenwriting, the one where US monopolies insist that scripts MUST be in FinalDraft format (despite the fact you send it as... A pdf, so they have no idea what you made it on), with specific centralises formatting

Until you realise 60yrs of the UK's best-selling shows use totally different formats

Helping people is more efficient. This is a society, if we help each other, we grow and prosper. We don't help each other, it all falls apart.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

In contrast to shittification

When shareholder value returns are not involved, and those who have a stake in the business use and need the products and services

Service quality and customer support flourish

As your high street bank closes local branches

Building societies stay open

Took bins out

Coming back, startled Not My Cat (black) in darkness, it ran, I dodged, slipped, skidded onto one knee

Shock of fall + 2nd day of heavy period, no blood pressure to head, took me ages before I could stand up without keeling over

And this, kidz, is why I don't do household chores
Being single, I am very happy on my own

But there are times, on the long dark winter nights, with a chill to the air, when I feel the desire and need and want for A Man

...

...

"This about taking the bins out, isn't it?" 🙄

Yup. It's dark and FREEZING and they're stinky 😭🥶

I've lost my tiara 👑

No, seriously. I can't find it anywhere. I need it later this week. (No, seriously)

Better than season 2

ish

But episodes are 2 short. They have a rushed feel. Getting the plot and structure out the way just in time for the finale. Fun, but want... More
Writers: You go to phenomenal effort to write the perfect longline to woo a production company, lovingly handcrafted to absolute perfection

Meanwhile: Disney+ for Tracker, episode summary:

"Colter follows a series of clues to find the truth"

😐

"Oh look, a clue!" 🤦🏼‍♀️

Ooh, have seen this convent in S3 of Tracker before in Poltergeist the Legacy!

Is there only one convent in Vancouver?

It's cold. It's wet. I need to take the rubbish out, empty the fridge, make food, do the washing up and take a drive

So far I have...

Okay the new season isn't as terrible as the previous ones

I mean, it's still not great, unfortunately, but has upped the ante and was slightly, marginally, sort of, engaging

Can't forgive this for being so disappointing but pleased with the new season, and he is SO PRETTY

Cinema trip 🍿

Extremely high quality, mature, well crafted, infinitely more grown up and better than about 90% of anything coming out of Hollywood by so wide a nautical mile it would cover the Atlantic

But, cosy, cliched and I just wanted... I dunno, more

Feeling really happy and relaxed for the first time in months after that 🥰

Now watching this, and I'm sorry, but I'm actually really enjoying it, perfect balance of cuddly, cheesy and huggable with action movie touches. Terrible but I'm enjoying it 🥰

Women at NASA, starting with one of my favorite #WomenInSTEM photos
🧵
Valerie Thomas (1943) is an African American badass scientist.
She invented the illusion transmitter in 1980.
She helped develop the digital media formats that image processing systems used in NASA's Landsat program.
Her [very cool!] NASA photo next to a stack of computer tapes, 1979.

I have now successful achieved and done...

Nothing

All day

Didn't read, do anything productive, no chores, nothing, nada, zip zilch, just a stupidly long bath, lounging around and use your imagination

I feel GLORIOUS

The crippling fatigue thingie I've had for weeks vanished
Booked a long weekend, first time this year with nothing to do, with the script Out There, I don't have to necessarily write anything, it's not a working weekend, I have no commitments outstanding

🤗

And yes

Midday and I'm already astoundingly bored, angsty and restless for lack o Purpose 🤦🏼‍♀️
