Well I love your Hull accent. ❤️😎

We’re waiting for the schools to buy it, but once it catches it will spread like wild fire. According to Lou in the sales department. Xx

Wow, Ruth go girl! I mean I know you’re not a girly girl, but go woman, just doesn’t cut it. What an achievement and a very good excuse to meet up with Pavla and Luke and drink you under the table! Xx

Wow that looks good and yes I would like to see that, are you? X

Went to see Pirate Bonnie, @fidgettheatre Bloomin’ good, child engagement, “it’s a book” / “it’s a pen”/ “it’s a notebook!” It’s a lovely show.

Bloody hell the circular Trojan 600! This is a Greek myth of a man hole. Look at the labyrinth pattern on it, you could lose yourself in it. In fact it was withdrawn for that very reason; it led to too many pedestrians losing their minds.

We enjoyed working with you George, still do Czech warm up. X

We had so much fun working with you George! I even still do the Czechoslovakia warm up. X

Not so happy valley x

Go see the show, if you’re Wigan way. Xx

Yes buy the show😍

That is truly wonderful, a blue planet for a blue bird inside a blue arch. Yes I can imagine it would have made you weigh every word. X

Bottle up those lovely responses Tash and take a swig from it every now and again. Sounds like the tour is flying high. Xx

Two birds in blue and now one blue bird. Hope it went well. Xxx

Owl babies is a great book. X
