Surely Sheffield is the true home of metal (little joke there for funsies)

Yessssss. Cardiff has a great metal scene, will see what’s on (although for authenticity we should hit up Birmingham) 🤘

Oh I am very serious! Probably something gentle to begin with, maybe a Sabbath tribute band, but you should also see a band like Meshuggah for full appreciation of how much maths is involved

Please tell her I write books and make science animations and hang out with astronauts which I am pretty sure is the opposite of stupid, and I love to read more than anything in the world which I can’t do without my glasses (I have six pairs, all different colours for different moods).

Do join us in Birmingham for the launch if you can - London and other events coming later in the year.

Although I do query if perhaps it was not enough butter over a regular amount of bread, but that amounts to the same problem
