Weekend has plummeted into misery after my iMac went kaput on Friday. Now coaxing all the stuff I need on to a new Mac.

Have to say that @BBCRadio4’s new versions of ‘lost’ Hancock episodes are excellent. And have the actor Kevin Eldon in them.

I just pledged to Reptile Resistance by C M Taylor on Unbound! unbound.co.uk/books/reptile-…

@Guernseyevacuee hi – would like to feature your new book in Your Family Tree. Could you email me at history@preparetopublish.com? Thanks!

I’m frankly sick of @createspace not understanding EU copyright law or actually reading the emails I send.

Well, I’m gonna say it: thank you, Amazon Prime, for bringing us Ripper Street again. Still excellent.

@doccosmos @the_sibyl L really loves the Earthly Treasures book – thanks! (Currently wants to be a scientist…)

Why don’t John Lewis and Sainsburys just team up and do a Christmas ad about penguins in the WW1 trenches, eg? EH?
