Fun morning filming with @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social in South East London
Thought provoking evening @TheO2 listening to @barackobama.bsky.social & @davidolusoga.bsky.social
Around 20,000? people and yet you could have heard a pin drop. At times depressing, at times hopeful but certainly a lot to think on.

Perfect Sat morning courtesy of @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social
It’s already made me laugh and think. I’m only on ‘A’!
The intro mentions an event I sorted out so as always, reading your books has such a personal connection and I feel very fortunate. Thank you for my “Good Day” spent reading

It’s humbling to be in a room packed with people who dedicate their professional lives in service of others the way those across our NHS do.
Tonight North London NHS Foundation Trust’s staff awards was hosted by @MichaelRosenyes
and I got to go along too.

Lastnight we had an SOB outing to watch our client Rea Malhotra-Mukhtyar in a thought-provoking piece of storytelling, very different to her school sessions which we organise for her. With her usual talent, warmth and creativity, it was such a treat to see her versatility as a performer and artist.

A group of us went to watch our dear friend Michael Rosen live narrate the incredible dance show based on his ‘Sad Book’.
Superb choreography @201DanceCompany. A truly moving yet also healing experience.
Congratulations to all involved but mostly to Michael, who I just went North of the river for ♥️

All packed and leaving for @childcareedexpo.bsky.social @myolympia to support @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social (not physically… or emotionally for that matter!).
Two seminars and a mammoth signing session, @RovingBookshop no doubt.
It’ll be a fun day!
