Giving a keynote at a conference in Essen, Germany next week.
First pic shows the title - first slide of the PowerPoint.
Second pic gives you an idea of the kind of frenzied process of putting it all together.
Just a few finishing touches and it's ready to go!

Today, I've been compering the Bean Summit - part of a campaign to persuade people to eat more beans - they're cheap, healthy and good for the planet.
I debuted a new song I wrote about beans. I knew it was going down well when I saw people getting their phones out.

My Dad's 2nd Lieutenant's cap from when he did National Service in the early 1950s.
Dad was a lifelong socialist but was very proud of having passed his officer training.
The cap's in a sorry state. Any ideas how I could get it restored?

Kind of ambiguous.
Are they saying "If you wear perfume, don't overdo it"?
Or are they saying, "Everyone must wear a moderate amount of perfume"?

Can you name the green-faced singer in the collage I made for this week's Funny Rabbit?
And the parrot that's coming out of her eye was taken from a comic book of an iconic comedy double act. Can you name that double act?

It's for a thing I'm working on for Funny Rabbit. Any dog photos you post will be projected behind me as I sing a song I'm working on.
Thanks, pals!
