I'm sharing this here, as I have on Facebook and Instagram, but there's no account on here to share from, and I just think this is wonderful.

A really good balance of design and implementation, and appears to achieve everything it set out to do, and it *SO* appeals to my inner 'work nerd'.

We asked our teams to share some of the sad* Christmas decorations in the collections they help care for.

*Note: Not all are sad. Some are ever so slightly odd and all are weirdly wonderful.

Andy Zaltzman made the New York Times?

Let us celebrate!

(BTW, his main job is still doing comedy, including on occasion with John Oliver. I’ve had the twin pleasures of seeing him being funny live & of hearing him doing the cricket stats on TMS.)

The way Sutton Hoo dismiss and look down upon the silliness and joy of the "Boaty Mc Boatface" competition has really riled me

They've already formulated the competition so they shortlist out any names they don't approve of, there's no need for their sneering 😤

If you’re only going to last 32 overs, might as well score over 5 an over. Smart batting from England.
