I’ve come down with something nasty over the past couple of days and Meadow has been stuck to my side eyeing me with loving concern.
Don’t worry, little one. Your meal ticket has survived worse than this!

Oh beg your pardon, I must have misheard. In my defence I was trying to coral my over excited dog as I was listening on our walk. 🤣
Here she is with the absurdly massive stick she brought back.

Don’t suppose anyone feels like pushing me up to 100? In return you’ll get access to sporadic but lovingly made video essays.

I love that when you look at my YouTube channel on a mobile device, the banner says

Meadow just informed me what Hype Points are. What a delight it is to have yet ANOTHER metric hoop to jump through on YouTube.
If you could head on over to the channel and throw some hypes (?!?) at my videos, I’d be hugely grateful.
If not, I assume you hate me.

This is 5 year-old me wearing lensless Clark Kent glasses and a store bought Superman costume under my dressing gown.
My video on James Gunn's Superman will go live at 5pm GMT tomorrow.
If you don't watch it, I'll assume that you hate children. And me.
