Word of the Day: "cloud"––an everyday word with a surprising origin; from Old English "clúd", meaning an outcrop of rock, a hill. Cumuli as mountains, weather as geology, storms building gorges, ridges, massifs of thunder; vast sky-ranges in which the mind wanders. 📷 Pezibear

★★★★★ ‘A hell of a production.’ The Times Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock) and Jonny Lee Miller (Elementary) alternate the roles of Frankenstein and his creature. #Frankenstein, directed by Academy Award®-winner Danny Boyle, is on YouTube next week. #NationalTheatreAtHome

I think what I'd really like right now is a cozy British village murder mystery show where Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are elderly widower neighbors who bicker a lot about their gardens, and also solve crimes. And there's a super hot grandson who has to drive them around.

I just met Iesha in the co-op, and remembered what a good poet she is. For anyone stuck on the GCSE treadmill who would rather be the moon. After Selima Hill.

What a fab production of #ROHcoppelia - @balletboy09 fantastic as always, sinister, hilarious and moving by turns. Such a joyful ballet - thank you so much!
