Gulp. I have just signed another deal with my fantastic publisher, for FOUR more #SheridanHoller books.
Thank you @_victoriahaslam for believing in me. Thank you @BrooDoherty for putting up with me. And thank you to the readers who have supported me.
YOU all made this happen.

The BBC had a camera - a smartphone, of course - live-streaming pictures from every single election count.
Here is how it was done, in terms of kit. For the signal, it was a sim card bonding to wifi at the venue.

The decorative feature around the main door at @NLIreland is called egg & dart. Supposedly a design based on the opium poppy. I remembered this because we used that same pattern on a proscenium arch on that music show called The Roxy
