20 years ago, Microsoft launched the Xbox 360! A few years later, I won an Xbox 360 S in a LOVEFiLM competition. It quickly became my favourite console of the generation, and I discovered the Mass Effect trilogy. #Xbox

In my teens, I had the biggest crush on Winona Ryder! No spoilers, but the first four episodes of Stranger Things 5 are amazing! I couldn’t love this series more… #StrangerThings #Netflix

I didn’t have a Labour government hollowing out Motability on my bingo card for 2025! But here we are.

Since joining the Motability scheme in 1989, it has been invaluable in improving my quality of life. I’ve been featured in magazines and quoted on marketing material at car dealerships across the UK. The recent mainstream media coverage surrounding so-called ‘free cars’ has created a moral panic!

It's Doctor Who Day! My timey-wimey adventure began with watching the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) with my dad! A year ago, he had a pacemaker fitted. The device features remote monitoring and has enhanced his quality of life thanks to the NHS. That's worth celebrating. 🌈💙💙 #DoctorWho

Listening to The Box of Delights soundtrack as I write. I have tea and a slice of homemade chocolate cake courtesy of a retired doctor friend (no, not THAT doctor).

5 years ago, the PlayStation 5 (PS5) was launched! I was lucky enough to order one on launch day via the John Lewis app (avoiding bots)! It was a much-needed geek gift ahead of a pandemic Christmas! #PlayStation5 #PS5

Neon Ichiban (NI), a digital comic and manga platform from the creators of ComiXology, invited me to beta test their new iOS app on Test Flight! As a lifelong comic book fan and self-confessed Apple geek, how could I not!
