The Play That Goes Wrong

NOISES OFF The REP, Birmingham, Wednesday 30th August 2023 One of the funniest plays ever written makes a welcome return to the touring circuit after a smash-hit revival in the West End.  Not so much a play-within-a-play as a farce-around-a-farce, it tells the story of an ill-fated production of a fictional farce, Nothing On, what used to be known as a Whitehall farce.  The form may have fallen…

Books!! Thanks to @officialmood for the tag :)

An estimate of how many physical books I own: Me, staring at my bookcases and doing an estimate per shelf x number of shelves... maybe 500? (and if you include ebooks, then there are 304 books in my to read folder and 339 in my read and keep folder). AND I did a big clear out before I moved last year. And took four bags to the charity book shop earlier this year. I cycle a lot of second hand books in and out tbh.

Favorite author: There are loads of favourite books and I could pretty much go on about most of the books on my shelves, but I think I could continue to lose myself in Lois McMaster Bujold's books over and over and over again. I know that Georgette Heyer books are very much Of Their Time but it is also true that if I ever need a comfort read then I know what to reach for.

A popular book I've never read and never intend to read: Godddddddddd. Liza said Infinite Jest and I also have zero intention of ever reading this. But SO MANY.

A popular book I thought was just meh: Red, White, and Royal Blue. I did not get along with Wolf Hall, but I also didn't get that far into it before giving in.

Longest book I own: Toss up between the Neal Stephenson Baroque Cycle volumes, War and Peace, Samantha Shannon's The Priory of the Orange Tree (although I've lent this out and probably won't get it back), and Victoria Goddard's Hands of the Emperor / At The Feet of the Sun. They're all pretty chunky, without doing any specific investigation.

Longest series I own all the books to: Elinor M. Brent-Dyer's Chalet School series (approx 62 books, depending on which editions you own). After that, Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan series.

Prettiest book I own: I don't own any where the cover is the prettiest thing I've ever seen, but I do own a queer historical photography book where together the inside and out is the prettiest visual history. Some of my books are v pretty because of the way they make me feel, but that's a different question.

A book or series I wish more people knew about: Maybe Hands of the Emperor by Victoria Goddard? There's a core few of us that feel a lot about it. One of my very oldest internet friends that I haven't seen in years sent me a package earlier in the year that was just a notebook that had reminded her of this book and therefore it was a necessity to share it with me (she was right to do this). I also kind of want more people to talk to about Joan Aiken's Black Hearts in Battersea series.

Book I’m reading now: I'm listening to Jingo by Terry Pratchett, have just picked up the second Sandman volume, and I'm partway through Our Wives Under The Sea by Julia Armfield (although I realised last night that it was too creepy for me to read in bed, lollllllll)

Book that’s been on my TBR list for a while but I still haven’t gotten around to it: BRB just going to stare into an invisible camera, my goodreads to read pile is 462 books long and is only made up of stuff that I own / once owned and is probably not up to date with paperbacks. Let's say The Simarillion, because I've probably intended to read that since I was a kid (and have not yet managed it). I've read 133 books so far this year and yet my to read pile never gets any fucking smaller.

Do you have any books in a language other than English: Nope. I used to own some HP books in German and Latin but I did not keep them. I am not very good at languages, although me and the Duolingo owl are trapped in a daily standoff.

Paperback, hardcover or ebook?: Mixture of all three. Love a good paperback but I am... gently allergic to paper, so sometimes if I've read too many paper books my hands pay the price, and on the whole I do believe that skin should stay on my body, where I've put it, rather than peel off and bleed. A healthy mix of ebook and paperbook in general, with the odd hardback.

People have probably already done this, but tagging @junkshop-disco, @magog83, @dearmrsawyer, and @pennyplainknits.

The Sound Of Science - s/t LP - Castles In Space presents a set of catchy folktronic songs about science! With a super cover by Nick Taylor.

Dean Honer is a Sheffield based musician, producer and founding member of many iconic electronic music bands including The All Seeing I, I Monster, The Moonlandingz and The Eccentronic Research Council. He has worked as a producer for bands such as The Human League, Add N to X and Roisin Murphy. Kevin Pearce is a songwriter from Essex. He has received plaudits for his work from The Independent, The Guardian and Mojo magazine. His music has been used on HBO programmes in the USA as well as BBC TV shows in the UK. Dean explains the background and inspiration for the album: “The idea for The Sound of Science had been in my head for a number of years. “Being a parent of young kids I endured a lot of very cliched and awful children's songs that were attempting to combine education and entertainment. These quickly became a form of torture to me, something that the CIA might use in covert operations to flush out a drug cartel from their hideout. It became apparent that there was a desperate need for informative songs and music that were appealing and bearable for both children and their parents. “I recruited my friend Kevin Pearce, (who I have produced and collaborated with on various projects over the years), to bounce ideas off and who could put together a nice series of chords and could sing! Which helps when writing songs. Kevin is from an acoustic folk background and I'm more of a one finger synth player in the Human League tradition. I thought it would be interesting to mix the folk and electronic element together for children’s songs. “We then recruited various artists to sing on the tracks including PsychFolk singer Sharron Kraus, performance artist Heidi Kilpaleinen (HK119), synth goddess Tara Busch, artist and ex Add N to X man Steven Claydon and vocalists Liza Violet and Tom O'Hara. “Kevin and I are both interested in science and astronomy so that was the obvious direction for the album. Writing songs about various scientific subjects was interesting and a challenge. Aiming them at children meant that we didn't need a PHD for the lyrics. It became more about conveying a sense of wonder and presenting some amazing facts to audience. “In 2018 we were asked by Sheffield University to work on a live version of the album and to collaborate with some of their senior scientists on the project. This turned The Sound of Science into a live performance spectacular involving scientific experiments on stage, a live band performing the songs, plus 3D visuals created by Human in Sheffield. We performed 3 shows over two days and the reaction from kids and their parents was amazing. More festival shows due in 2020 were curtailed because of the pandemic, but we hope to get the show back on the road in 2022.” The Sound of Science is available in gatefold coloured vinyl and CD editions. The package includes an accompanying booklet beautifully designed and Illustrated by Nick Taylor for spectral-studio.co.uk All songs written and performed by Dean Honer and Kevin Pearce. Produced by Dean Honer. Vocals by Kevin Pearce, Sharron Kraus and the Verve Children's Choir of Sheffield. Featuring guest vocals by: Liza Violet - Photosynthesis (Love the Green Machines). Tom O'Hara - What Makes A Sound. Steven Claydon - Everything's Made of Atoms. HK119 - Global Warming. Tara Busch - The Solar System. Henry and Ellis Goddard - A Total Solar Eclipse. Rebecca Hammond - A Total Solar Eclipse. Science notes by Dr Nate Adams.

Doctor Who: Terminus

I rewatched this serial on 23 April 2023. Yes, I have decided to rewatch the Black Guardian trilogy together in one hit. I recall forty years ago being less than thrilled that so much was being made of that character, when he was a bit of a damp squib both during the Key to Time season and afterwards… Having watched the lead up to this in a much shorter timescale than when I was a kid… yeah, the whole Black Guardian stuff doesn’t really work. A shame, because Valentine Dyall does give it his all.

Turlough is wondering about the TARDIS, talking to the Black Guardian. Tegan is (rightly) suspicious of him. She gives him Adric’s room (odd, when there are so many to choose from!). Turlough breaks something and trouble comes inside to threaten Nyssa. The Doctor tells her to leave the TARDIS through a giant door with a skull motif on it.

Unusually for many Dr Who serials, we stick with our heroes (plus the Black Guardian) for quite some time in the first part. It’s not until over halfway that we see any of the guest cast, in this case the amazing space pirates with the big hair, Kari (Liza Goddard who was in Skippy) and Olvir (Dominic Guard, who was in Picnic at Hanging Rock). Tegan and Turlough discover other people on the ship — people suffering from a leprosy-like disease and being treated horrifically. Far future Tory health policy in action. Of course, there’s a bit more to it than that what with event horizons and radiation and Norse mythology.

And, at the end, we farewell Sarah Sutton as Nyssa.

The Secret Business Ideas to Get Started Your Entrepreneurial Journey

Starting a business is no more a dreamy task. But deciding what to start is still a tough job. You can start a business by simply developing a website. The right idea can make a successful entrepreneur and generate the desired revenue.

On the other hand, a bad idea of business can drag you to a loss. To establish a brand, products, or services in such a manner that whenever your potential customers visit your website, they should find some strong reasons to be on it and buy.

To avoid business losses, we have jotted down the secret business ideas to get started on your entrepreneurial journey successfully. These ideas are inspired by some great female founders:

1.   Podcasting: Podcasting is one of the most growing businesses. You can create a solid presence by hosting a meaningful podcast, developing an audience base, and monetizing your episodes. Side Hustle Pro by Nicaila Matthews Okome, The Women in Tech Show: A Technical Podcast by Edaena Salinas, Katherine Goldstein's The Double Shift Podcast, and Female Founders by Naghilia Desravines are real-world examples of successful podcasts hosted by women entrepreneurs.

2.   Blogging or Vlogging: In recent few years, blogging and vlogging have come up as a new source of income. Talking about real life examples, A Cup of Jo by Joanna Goddard, Jenna Marbles, Liza Koshy, etc., are on top of the list of blogging or vlogging. Chiara Ferragni is a fashion blogger and entrepreneur whose annual net worth is $35 million.

3.   eCommerce business: eCommerce platforms like Etsy and eBay allow independent product sellers an already established platform to sell online. It can save your money invested in website development or installing a physical store. World of Books Ltd, musicmagpie, and second.sale are among the top-rated independent sellers on eBay.

4.   Content writing: Content writing is a vast and trending job. It includes writing blogs, product descriptions, reviews, advertisements, etc. A number of opportunities you will find in content creation, such as writing for magazines like WomLEAD Magazine, newspapers, corporate companies, product descriptions, reviews, or developing professional videos, etc. Writesonic, Jasper, Rytr, Joe Coleman, Laurence Blume, and Lorrie Morgan are writers earning a magnificent amount in the content writing field.

5.   Video creator: Video creation is an interesting and one of the fastest growing industries. If you scroll through Facebook feeds, Instagram stories, feeds, YouTube shorts, and videos, you can have a clear idea of the scope of high-quality video creation. Video creation covers producing entertainment, food, fashion, education, animations, and instructional, commercial, and personal videos. We can see real life examples as Ted-Ed, Vsauce, and Cocomelon are lying under the top video creator businesses.

6.   Online coaching: Education is the only industry where you will never see any kind of recession or downfall. If you are good at teaching specific subjects or have some demanding skills, you can start your own online coaching institute. Starting online coaching requires only good internet connectivity, a laptop or desktop computer and you can go for it. Teacher Tech by Alice Keeler and Khan Academy are the leaders of some popular online coaching businesses.

7.   Career mentoring: If you have the ability to mentor people, skill sets, and experience, career mentoring is the perfect field you can make the best of it. People working in corporate sectors sometimes feel lost about their professional growth, and they seek professional guidance. They need guidance to get promoted to a leadership or managerial role, to become able to switch to their dream jobs and establish a work-life balance as a boss or manager. WomELLE is a real-world leader in career mentoring who has already mentored and helped various women entrepreneurs.

8.   Website services-based business: IT industry is rising, shining everyday and surprising each one of us with its innovation and development of the latest technologies. Today every entrepreneur requires a professional online website to sell their products, services, or brands. If you can create professional websites for entrepreneurs exactly what WomELLE is working on, you can do business that will never face a downturn. A strong portfolio of your customers can take your business to the next heights.

And if you are still in a dilemma of choosing a business idea, team WomELLE is always happy to assist you. You can select a mentorship program as per your requirements and start your entrepreneurial journey. You can also subscribe to their newsletters to know successful business strategies.

Going with a Bob Seger classic today. Let me tell you about the last few days. They’ve been nuts. I posted on Twitter a couple of days ago about Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. And so many people fondly remember Skippy. I’ve even heard from the son of Liza Goddard (Liza played Clarissa/Clancy in the series). It’s been an absolute blast of memories for so many of us! 1 million impressions when I looked…
