The struggles I have regularly spelling out "O-apostrophe-D-O-N-O-H-O-E" pale in comparison to this surname. #SurnameChallenge

It's rare I'll finish an unabridged audiobook and really wasn't expecting to enjoy this, but found it informative and insightful and stuck with it to the end. #Neurodiversity #STEM #ComputingHistory #BillGates

Ok, tried Gemini twice, one refused to cooperate and the other wasn't bad. Chat GPT gave a fantastic report with links to video and resources.

It's a good night to spot the International Space Station, 6.32pm look West. Skies in Northern England looking clear.

If you like watching the International Space Station pass over, there's some good potential sightings in the next week or so from the UK. #ISS

In 1999, we decorated our son's bedroom to look like we imagined the interior of the international space station, with 2x1m 'windows' showing views outside, using glow in the dark paint. I've just found the photos now. #ISS

We spent Halloween at the London Science Museum after dark, uncovering stories from the history of Computing. Topics included Babbage, Lovelace, LEO and quantum encryption. #SMLates #exabits
