Look how much fun he's having! (Until Harty starts in on the Usual Questions bit...) and that look George gives when Paul says they make the decisions unanimously - ha! Great to see the Air mugs though. I have one of those! fb.watch/v/attIjVvMN/...

If we don't use our small poetry presses, we'll lose them. This is why I refuse to flinch or shy from asking you to purchase a copy of Whatever You Do, Just Don't, my second full collection. Here's a sample poem from the book. Just drop me a DM and I'll sort out a signed copy for you...

An absolute joy to be asked onto the #StillAnyGood pod this morning to talk 9 to 5 with Chris Webb and Rob Johnson. What a great start to my day, drinking cups of ambition, and paying tribute to Dolly.

Every time a housekeeper speaks in a book I'm reading, all I hear is Alison Steadman as Mrs Gosling in Gloomsbury. It's marvellous! #Gloomsbury

At the Sherman, Cardiff for Mark Watson, and I’m in Rob Brydon’s adopted seat. There’s a Paul McCartney connection for me EVERYWHERE!!!!

Massive thanks for a brilliant day to Terry Jones, Nemo, Jillian Reilly, Paul Abbott, Cath MacSweeney, Len MacSweeney, and OnTheChimneythe2nd. To Julie and Gary Evans, Mike and Bernie Byrne, Mark Lewisohn, and Stuart Maconie - and of course, the boys and themselves.

Day 2 of my Beatles adventure. Off to the Adelphi today for The Convention! For the moment, those, here's a collection of stuff** in my room at a Premier Inn Somewhere In Liverpool...

Would love to say that I bought it for her, but instead, we both lived on beans for months and saved like buggers!

If I am safely in my hotel in Liverpool, I will join you. Failing that, I will be on the streets of Liverpool dancing to Beatles.

Finally ordered Revolution 9! It's been on my To Buy list since last August, but I was only allowed to buy more books once I'd read at least two thirds of my To Read shelf.

Make tea. Pop the toast down. Make love. Butter toast. Drink tea.

Make love, not war. Or tea. Actually, make tea first. And would it kill you to put a bit of toast on? In summary, make tea, then toast, then love, then war. No, wait, not war. Don’t make war at all.

Thanks to @BBCRadio4, I now have a Rasputin earworm, so I’m trying to combat it by rewriting all the lyrics. So far, I have: Some people looked at him with horror and with fear, ‘Cause he stank of chips and drank his body weight in beer.

I also have some Twitter pen pals.

I do still have pen pals, one of whom is from the days of yore... I regularly write letters. It's a relatively inexpensive hobby. You know, compared to horse training or golf.
