Every time I visit London it feels safe and vibrant. These statistics show that contrary to some of the narratives pushed online it's one of the safest major cities statistically. #london

Just ordered the annual Huey "Block" for 2025 where we celebrate all the projects we've been lucky enough to work on for the year. Here are some past examples. No preview of the 2025 edition just yet though - as there are still some secret things on it! 🤫

Guess what we found in the Science & Industry Museum, Manchester, today? 👀 One of the games dad published in the 80s. Here he is looking at it. Rather a surprise to find out surname on a screen in a museum randomly! #retrogaming
