Also, he pretty much predicted the plot of Severance – this from a section about how everyone can have a clone of themselves.

Me and my son are reading "Coping with the 21st century" by Peter Corey, a Horrible Histories style kids non-fic published in 1999. It's tickling our brains on so many levels (it starts with an intro addressed to anyone reading in the 2020s!)

This prediction is funny and quite close to true ...

A rare outing for me and the books – thanks to staff and students at the University of Salford.

Did anyone else see this sky?? Extraordinary!

Filey – a Christmas "tree" made of lobster pots, topped with a metal fish. Imaginative! (I'm sure the lobsters prefer them put to this use...)

Here's a piece of art I didn't think I'd see today! Somehow, I feel like if you put those two characters in a blender, I might be the result. (Note: I do not necessarily intend that as a compliment.)

Two news stories from my phone feed today ... does one explain the other? 🤔

A decent dusting today in #Scarborough. Feels like winter!

Damn, this bit of pavement on the school run is really paying off, photo wise 😂 it's the gift that keeps giving!

Spotted at the 'Creative Connections' symposium today... that rare piece of art that truly deserves the label 'stirring'.

I'd have played him songs off this album just for extra irony

Majestic school run today – so thankful for it

Part of my school run yesterday... very lucky to live on the coast. #Scarborough #photos

When discussing local cycle routes with ChatGPT, I unwisely asked "could you show me the route you mentioned between Scarborough and Filey?"

This is what it came up with... I then said "that's the worst map I've ever seen in my life", Chat just said "thank you for your honesty." 🚴‍♂️

Decided to give this app a try... spent the last few minutes scrolling through the feed and feel *calmer* than when I started. That's a very good sign!

Here's a picture of an owl at Scarborough harbour which I took yesterday.
