From today until Friday, you can take 25% off the price with the code OCTOBER25. Pre-ordering is a great way to support debut writers ❤️ www.waterstones.com/book/service...

This is an absolute banger of a @bigfinish.bsky.social story by @mooneylwrites.bsky.social & @stewartwpringle.bsky.social. Fascinating concept, very well executed. Claustrophobic, tense, with top-notch performances by Christopher Eccleston and Kelly Adams. A must-hear. #DoctorWho #AudioDrama

At least once a month, I get an email from a website I have no memory of using, where I bought like, one book eight years ago, saying they've been hacked and everything about me is now on the dark web. Ok well I didn't even want YOU to know everything about me???? so thanks

I'm afraid what risks 'hollowing out' London is property prices, foreign consortia owning countless empty buildings, rental costs, the decimation of nightlife, gentrification and Pretification and the demise of in person shopping. It should be somewhere we want to go not have to.
