I have just seen the worst Celebrity Antique Road Trip ever (and I have seen a few)! Hetti Jago and Steven Moore (with Emmerdale's Matt Wolfenden and Roxy Shahidi) take their purchases to a village hall in Yorkshire with no online bidders and sell everything for £10. Yorkshire stereotype *unlocked*

I would just like to update this to @richardosman1.bsky.social and @markhamillofficial.bsky.social. Bluesky is officially official. For real this time.
Okay, Bluesky is official now! As soon as we got @richardosman.bsky.social and @markhamillofficial.bsky.social I knew all was well.
Thanks for noticing.

In my work capacity as a librarian today I came across this image in a book and thought to myself, "mm, that's familiar. Must be a famous work." A few minutes later - yeah, it's the rotten dot com skeleton 😄💀(showing my age and *possibly* my level of depravity)

I had seen the films on TV and owned some action figures but I didn't get into Star Wars until I was in 6th form college (1998) just before Phantom Menace. I made a "Luke I am your father" joke to the guy next to me in English Lit and he laughed. He was a SW geek and we ended up being good friends.
Let’s have some fun. What got you into STAR WARS?

Used the 5-6 hour car journey from Market Weighton to Edinburgh to listen to almost the entirety of the audiobook of PL Traver's Mary Poppins read by the *wonderful* Olivia Colman. Great stuff - she really nails Mary Poppins' hardness. Unforgivably rude at times. Made me laugh. 😋

My favourite celebrity lookalike will never not be William H. Macy and his dogpelgänger. If you’re not sure which of the pictures is which, check the alt text for answers...

Really enjoyed Summer Spirit by Elizabeth Holleville - a coming of age story in a sun-kissed setting, illustrated in gorgeous pastel colours, with added ghosts (not spooky!). Well worth an hour or so of your time on a cold February evening.

*Incredibly* boring of me but as many people think this image is real, I'd just like to point out that it is a photoshop
