The Schumacher Family on @LewisHamilton winning his 91st GP, equalling Michael’s record: Big congrats, an impressive achievement of a great driver. We cannot deny we would have loved for Michael to hold those records, but as he always used to say: records are there to be broken. pic.twitter.com/xDRhVp5HVf

When the moon is at its furthest distance from the Earth in orbit, there’s enough space between the two to fit in all the other planets in our solar system. And Pluto.

When I "panicked" with Coronavirus, I did not run out and get on a train. I did not lose my character.
Ferrier and Cummings didn't lose their characters either. They revealed them.

Days since WHO said "test, test, test": 210
Days since PM promised world-beating track & trace: 144
Days since he promised all test results in 24 hrs: 112
Test results in 24 hrs: 25.7%
Days when test & trace has done its job: 0

Just learnt Greater Manchester will be placed into tier 2 restrictions via twitter. Apparently there was a government briefing for GM MPs but I can’t provide details because I wasn’t invited. I suspect this is because they don’t know where Wigan is. What an absolute shambles

Two kids locally were tested for Covid.
One positive, one negative.
Only Serco got the tests muddled up.
No idea which child was which.

I'm so happy I did a series of #Taskmaster. Firstly because it's such a funny, clever show made by incredibly nice, talented people. And secondly because it means I don't have to do it again, and instead can just watch the joy unfold from my sofa. Good luck to this year's gang!
