Should add, both from @elementgames.bsky.social which is pretty much the most glorious place ever.👍

Bought these 2 games over Easter weekend. Both absolutely brilliant.👍

For my money, @joelarcanjo.bsky.social has created one of the best series of the last few years with the Crook Haven books. Can't wait to spend a bit of time with Gabriel and the crew again.👍

We always read Orphans of the Tide to Y6. It's a knockout.👍

A little bit in love with this incredible Y2 bundle from A New Chapter. My go-to place to order books. @mrboothy6.bsky.social never misses.👍

Love this idea, Tom! Teaching in Manchester, this one hits hard, and beautifully.👍

Well I hope you get some proper sleep soon! It was a fair process, just knackering! Reading came out well, which is always nice!

The girls are trampolining so I'm catching up on some reading, starting with this from @larryhayesauthor.bsky.social.
WOW! This one doesn't let up at all. The scares come early and thick and fast from then on in. Absolutely loving it! Great choice by A New Chapter.

I imagine you're smashing headship, Tom. I took a couple of months off social media and now I'm here, and it seems nice! All good here, had the call on Monday so it's been quite a week but it was a really positive process so all good.👍
