Librarian, Knowledge Manager, Data Protection Officer and Records Manager. Let me know if I can be of any further help.

Bored, so I thought I'd 🧵 my #DoctorWho and professional #library, knowledge management, records management and book related passions together, and chart the occurrences they appear in the time travelling programme. No doubt I've missed some, so please let me know.

Friends fear he is listening to Coldplay*

(*I've had their first five albums up to Viva La Vida in my collection for ages, yet I've thought for a long time I should get rid. I haven't listened to them in ages because, you know... Coldplay... and my tastes have matured)

Will I end up ditching them?

Thirty years since Jarvis Cocker waggled his bum at Jacko at the Brit Awards. THIRTY YEARS!

(The funniest part of that story remains Bob Mortimer offering to act as Jarvis's legal representative.)

I'm not sure what's more painful while I sit in the dentists waiting room, the thought of the molar torture I'm about to undergo, or having to listen to Smooth Country FM while I wait.

If you enjoyed my radio play 'The Goblin King and Me' yesterday, could you please post about it or share the link to BBC Sounds with your family and friends..? It's so easy to miss these things and it's available to listen to for the next week. Thank you! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
