I was very prepared for George to be a candidate for early eviction from #Strictly. But he's actually quite good. My teenaged son is delighted and gutted in equal measure. 😂

Can I just get confirmation that 3 chocolate biscuits and a packet of Frazzles is an acceptable evening meal at this point in the term? Thank you.

On this article's topic of persuading more boys to pick up a book, I was really heartened to receive this message from the librarian at a school I visited last week telling me of the positive impact that ESCAPE ROOM: GAME ZERO has had. @nosycrow.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” Oscar Wilde Often the best thing we can do is just be ourselves. Not always polished. Not always serious. Just real. It’s the daft, joyful things that keep us going – that matters. 🧡 #kindness #positivity #hope Image by Katie Abey
