Just passed a small girl who wants to climb EVERY safety bollard on George IV Bridge, and her very patient dad, who is holding her hand and explaining the plot of Frankenstein as they go. Excellent #edfringe street theatre, 10/10.

Properly excellent to have a comedy nerd aside in an otherwise fairly dry BBC News article www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... on a business deal. 'The Argos catalogue, once described by comedian Bill Bailey as the "laminated book of dreams", used to be a physical book.'
Sainsbury's agrees to sell Argos for £120m
Under the terms of the deal, Argos will still operate in Sainsbury's shops, sell Habitat products, and offer Nectar points.

I like to imagine Cookie Monster clicking accept all whilst going absolutely berserk.
First show! Kids would like @eleanormorton.bsky.social'ss rap name to be "The Potato Lady", and want Pippa Evans to know "you sound like a female Mike Wozniak". Hat-tip, our audience.

It's the thing that makes angriest about book bans. Kids are already reading about all these topics online (and that social media ban isn't going to work at all). If I don't talk about those things in a book, then I'm leaving a young reader to navigate it all alone. How is that the moral choice?
So much of the job of a children's writer is filling in the appalling gaps left by governmental misunderstanding, contempt and sacrifice of young people to the frightened whims of Mail readers.
🤯 THIS SATURDAY! GOSH COMICS! (Berwick Street, London). Come down and meet a host of brilliant comic artists, get things signed, etc etc. I don’t think it’s ticketed so you can just turn up (with so many brill artists though, I suspect it might be busy!) Timings below! 👇
Joe Sutherland has an INCREDIBLE bit of stand-up he does at our shows about finding the perfect stick and the kids just ROARING their approval, yes yes yes to this!

Sometimes I get in a London taxi put on all the seatbelts at once and pretend I'm a spider.

We had comic & ventriloquist @maxfulham.bsky.social on at our Park Theatre show yesterday, with - among other things - his Horrible Baby. Kids LOST THEIR MINDS for the Horrible Baby. Probably cos it was messing with Max and not anyone else. With its tiny little invasive hands.
