Lazy all-tweet Saturday
Happy bears, large iPhones, pina coladas with Grant Shapps
I am late, and I am tired, and I am conserving my energy for Eurovision, so let’s get straight to the tweets.
me: perhaps if I escape into a book the world’s problems will go away
*world’s problems intensify*
me: oh no
It's a year to the day since my daughter hid 100 pictures of Chris Whitty around our home – and we have *still not* found them all...

We estimate there are still seven to find.
But she just smiles knowingly when we ask her where they might be - and refuses to crack.
In 50 years time the latest owner of our home will find one and I'd pay good money to see their bemused face.
One of my favorite scientific discoveries in recent years is that among domesticated animals, dogs recognize the difference between themselves and people, but cats just think the people who live with them are terrible incompetent cats
They meow much more loudly at you than at other cats because they’re effectively saying “HELLO. DO *YOU* WANT TO *HELP* WHILE I *DEMONSTRATE* HOW TO *CATCH* SOME *DINNER* LIKE AN *ADULT* WITH *BASIC DIGNITY*?”

“Coming up, the future of holidays with the transport secretary” - thanks a lot, radio 4, now I have a mental image of sipping pina coladas on a beach with Grant Shapps
also, my 8th graders are reading Romeo & Juliet and one of them just referred to the plague that prevents Friar Lawrence's letters from getting to Romeo as "Veronavirus"
if I was an Italian plumber whose girlfriend was constantly being imprisoned in castles by an evil fire breathing lizard I would simply not take part in recreational go-kart races with aforementioned lizard
me: I need tires
michelin: here you go
me: now if only someone could rate my restaurant
michelin: you're not gonna believe this
More next week.
