Wait? What? How did I never know this was a Dave Allen routine before it was in Yes, Prime Minister?
Cameron Yarde Jnr@CameronYardeJnrOct 18
50 years ago, Dave Allen told a joke about newspaper readers in 1976, it would become more famous 11 years after this on Yes, Prime Minister in 1987.

I've reached the age where people playing Fagin are younger than me. I shall definitely never play The Dane (being an actor would have helped enormously here as well).

I'm appearing as Fagin in Oliver! at the Gielgud Theatre in London until 1st November, and it's a fine life. Currently scheduled to appear in all performances (apart from the evening of Wednesday 21st October and the matinee on Thursday 29th October). Make up courtesy of Liv & Em

Things we find in books! Does anyone remember either pub? Better still, does anyone remember Patrick Jones or this book of poetry or this launch? We would LOVE to hear from you.
Cream-coloured printed invitation dated Tuesday, 1st November 1988, for the Dublin launch of Patrick Jones's poetry collection Embroidered Existence. The invitation features elegant calligraphy, black printed lettering and small decorative stars. It announces a 6pm launch at The Plough opposite the Abbey Theatre, followed by a 9pm gathering at The Deerhunter in Glenageary. The initials P.J. appear at the bottom right.

I love these types of random posts on social media… “Study finds mice might be able to understand basic algebra but only between February and April’.

Reading before bed is healthy. Unfortunately, “before bed” can become “instead of bed” remarkably quickly. Still, there are worse ways to arrive at 2:47am. 📚

'What day is it?' asked Pooh. 'It’s our BIRTHDAY.' squeaked Piglet. 'My favourite day.' said Pooh. Happy 100th BIRTHDAY to Pooh and the gang! 🎂🎉 Pooh and his friends first appeared on the 14th October 1926 in #WinnieThePooh by A.A. Milne. #WinnieThePooh100 #onthisday

Have any of my Boston followers seen the complementary sign? #Boston
Kelly Dobitz@KellyDobitzSep 27
I’m in Oregon visiting my parents and just couldn’t help myself! US 20 is pretty cool - it runs all the way from coast to coast, connecting Newport to Boston! Two cities that share a fondness for clam chowder (not the red one!). Anyone in Boston have a photo of the Newport sign?

⚡ Ground Control to Chapters Secondhand! Two glorious Bowie books have landed. 🧡 DAVID BOWIE IS INSIDE: photographs, costumes, art and extraordinary reinventions. We opened it for a quick look. That was quite some time ago. #DavidBowie #SecondhandBooks

Reading a book in public is only performative to people that don’t read books. To a reader, every waiting room, park bench, train carriage, airport gate, and café table is another potential chapter.
.@Az_capone1Oct 9
People that read books on the train are lowkey kinda performative 😭
